NAME

  Grid_putBlkData

SYNOPSIS

  Grid_putBlkData(integer(IN) :: blockID,
                  integer(IN) :: gridDataStruct,
                  integer(IN) :: structIndex,
                  integer(IN) :: beginCount, 
                  integer(IN) :: startingPos(MDIM),
                  real(IN)   :: datablock(dataSize(1),dataSize(2), dataSize(3)),
                  integer(IN) :: dataSize(3))

DESCRIPTION

  Puts a block of simulation data for a single variable into the specified 
  data structure
  
  This routine allows the user to put an entire block or any contiguous
  part of a block of data depending on the arguments passed. The user is also
  allowed to specify if index counting should begin at the exterior edge
  of the block (that is including guardcells), or the interior edge of the block.

  For 3 dimensional problems, a 3d block is returned.
  For 2 dimensional problems, a 2d block/plane is returned.
  For 1 dimensional problems, a 1d block/row is returned.

ARGUMENTS

  blockID : the local blockid


  gridDataStruct : integer value specifying data structure. 
                   The options are defined in constants.h and they are :
                   CENTER cell centered variables
                   FACEX  face centered variable on faces along IAXIS
                   FACEY  face centered variable on faces along JAXIS
                   FACEZ  face centered variable on faces along IAXIS
                   WORK   single, cell centered variable, valid only
                          for paramesh
                   SCRATCH scratch space that can fit cell and face centered variables
                   SCRATCH_CTR scratch space for cell centered variables
                   SCRATCH_FACEX scratch space facex variables
                   SCRATCH_FACEY scratch space facey variables
                   SCRATCH_FACEZ scratch space facez variables

  structIndex : integer value that specifies which variable to put into storage.
             for example: DENS_VAR, PRES_VAR as defined in Flash.h 


  beginCount : tells the routine where to start index counting.  beginCount can
               be set to INTERIOR or EXTERIOR.  If INTERIOR is specified
               guardcell indices are not included and index 1 is the first interior cell. 
               If EXTERIOR is specified
               the first index, 1, is the left most guardcell.  See example
               below for more explanation.  (For most of the FLASH architecture code,
               we use EXTERIOR.  Some physics routines, however, find it helpful 
               only to work on the internal parts of the blocks (without
               guardcells) and wish to keep loop indicies  
               going from 1 to NXB without having to worry about finding 
               the correct offset for the number of guardcells.) 
               (INTERIOR and EXTERIOR are defined in constants.h)


  startingPos(MDIM):
           specifies the starting position of the block being fetched
   
           startingPos(1) = i
           startingPos(2) = j
           startingPos(3) = k

           If a problem is 2 dimensions startingPos(3) is irrelevant and
           ignored.  For 1d problems startingPos(2) and startingPos(3) 
           are ignored.


  datablock : a real 3 dimensional array containing the data returned
              The dimensions for datablock are 
              datablock(irange, jrange, krange) 
              Various compilers require the dimensions of
              datablock to be specified explicitly.  They are defined by 
              the next argument "dataSize".  


  dataSize : an integer array specifying the dimensions for datablock
          
          dataSize(1) holds the number of cells returned in the i direction

          dataSize(2) holds the number of cells returned in the j direction
                      if 1 dim problem set dataSize(2) = 1

          dataSize(3) holds the number of cells returned in the k direction
                      if 1 or 2 dim problem set dataSize(3) = 1

EXAMPLE

    EXAMPLE 1:  
    Here is a 3d block example putting the entire block, including guardcells,
    for each block on a local processor.  beginCount is set to EXTERIOR
    meaning that the first cell of the block including guardcells is 
    index = 1.  If in this example, NGUARD = 4 then position 5 is the
    first interior cell in a dimension.

    (Can't really draw 3d for this example, but this
     picture is meant to help show where 
     counting begins when "beginCount" is set to EXTERIOR)

          end do



    EXAMPLE 2:
    In this 2d block example we will put only a portion of the interior part of
    a block for each block on the local processor.
    beginCount is set to INTERIOR, meaning that all the startPos indices
    will start where index 1 is the first interior cell of the block.
    In this example we will put only the last 2 columns of interior cells.
    i start position = 7, j start position = 1.  (Because this is only a 2d
    problem Grid_putPlaneData could also be used to put these cells.)

    (hard to draw, but this is the idea, stars (*) are the cells to return
     notice the where indice counting starts when beginCount is set to INTERIOR)
