SimRead3
The main CONTAM result file, the SIM file, is a binary file. In general, binary files are significantly smaller and faster to work with than text files but must be translated by specialty programs in order for their contents to be human readable.
SimRead3 is a utility provided to enable you to create text files from SIM files. It enables you to select the information you want to obtain from the SIM file and export it to tab-delimitted files that can then be easily imported into a spreadsheet program for further analysis.

1D Zone Data file converter
1DZRead is a command line utility that converts 1D zone contaminant simulation data to tab-delimited files. These results can only be generated using CONTAM's Short Time Step contaminant simulation method.
To use the program, place the file 1DZRead.exe into a directory that contains the PRJ and associated 1D result files (RXR and RZ1 files). Drag-and-drop the PRJ file onto the 1DZRead.exe icon and respond to the input prompts which enable you to select the zones, contaminants and number of cells to output. You can then open the tab-delimited file with a spreadsheet program to view the results.
