Inactive cells

Hello,
I am doing a simulation where I am supposed to have a a entire block of cell inactive.

The way to make a block of cells inactive is by giving it an NTG of 0 or a Porosity of 0.
I g ave NTG as 0. The problem I think i am having with them now is that they do not shoe up on Floviz.
I mean the graphs are all as I expected but Is there anyway that inactive cells an show up on FLOViz?

Regards
Tejaswy

Use ACTNUM to define the only active cells.
If you put the porosity or NTG is zero the simulator will understand these cells as a barrier

Floviz can show them if you display Initial Property (NTG or PORO)

No if the NTG is zero Eclipse treats them as iinactive.

Tejaswy,
instead of using 0 try to use 0.05 for example instead!
and fix the minimum pore volume value for the cells to 500 rbbls for instance (MINPV keyword), Eclipse will shut the cell (make it inactive) as its pore volume would be under the value specified above!
Hope it'll help!

Yup... Thanks for that
