V3R Dartmouth FEM File Standard Filetype (Description).

       Output format for a 3-D, Steady-state, vector field.

       This filetype is read by the OPNML MATLAB function 
       read_v2c.  Type "help read_v2c" for more information.

       The .v3r file contains 3 header lines:
          1) The geometric meshname
          2) User-defined file description line
          3) NNV, the number of vertical sigme mesh nodes
             under each horizontal 2-D node.

       Then, there are NN*NNV lines of the form:
             I  Z(I,J) U(I,J) V(I,J) W(I,J)

       where:  Z(I,J) = vertical coordinate at horizontal node I,
                        vertical node J (MKS)
		(U,V,W) = (x,y,z) vector amplitudes of the 3-D
		          velocity at node (I,J)
               J=1,NNV - the inner loop over 1-D vertical nodes
               I=1,NN  - the outer loop over 2-D horizontal nodes
               NN = the number of horizontal nodes in the mesh

      for more details.
