EngineNode Properties

Properties

AutoGenerated Flag specifying that the node was autogenerated.
BottomLevel Bottom level

For a junction node (node without volume (in a river setup)), this is set to the smallest bottomlevel of the surrounding reaches.

ExternalCoupledArea When coupled to an external water level, the effect of changing the water level in the network model also affects the external water level. By specifying the external coupled area, the actual water level boundary is modified to take the change in this external coupled area into account.

It effectively has a smoothing effect on a coupling. The smaller coupled area, the more smoothing effect is applied.

Setting the coupled area to 0 disables the procedure.

GroundLevel Ground level

For a junction node (node without volume (in a river setup)), this is not set, having value of MaxValue.

HasVolume Boolean specifying whether the enginenode has a volume.

Must be overwritten for enginenodes with a volume

HeadLossCalculator Head loss calculator
ID Node ID string. (Not associated with the reach ID's)
InfiltrationCalculator Infiltration calculator
InternalNode Returns true if the node is internal, i.e., not a boundary node.
Location The Location of the node. A node can be placed at more than one location. This only handles one location. Used for searching for initial conditions.
Obsolete
MaxInflowFromSurface Maximum inflow from the surface, i.e. rainfall runoff type inflows.

This is only relevant for sewer type nodes, where the inflow is limited by a surface opening like a sewer grate.

NodeMaxInflowReservoir Node max inflow reservoir
OpenBoundarySubType Sub type of open boundary.
OpenBoundaryType Type of open boundary. Check if node is an open boundary using InternalNode before accessing this property.
OpenSourceBoundary Get the IOpenSourceBoundary for the node. Null when node is an internal node (not an open boundary node)
PressureReachNodeType This nodes relation to pressurized sections of the network
PressureReachTailCrestLevel Minimum water level in the outflow from pressurized sections, and hence also minimum water level in the pressurized section

Only applicable when PressureReachNodeType is Tail.

ShadowNode Returns true if the node is a shadow node, i.e. only representing a node from another domain (MPI)
XCoordinate X coordinate of node
YCoordinate Y coordinate of node
