EngineNodeStructure Properties

Bottom level

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

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.

Ground level

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

Boolean specifying whether the enginenode has a volume.

Must be overwritten for enginenodes with a volume

Head loss calculator

Node ID string. (Not associated with the reach ID's)

Infiltration calculator

Returns true if the node is internal, i.e., not a boundary node.

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.

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.

Node max inflow reservoir

Sub type of open boundary.

Type of open boundary. Check if node is an open boundary using InternalNode before accessing this property.

Get the IOpenSourceBoundary for the node. Null when node is an internal node (not an open boundary node)

ID of outlet structure

This nodes relation to pressurized sections of the network

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.

Returns true if the node is a shadow node, i.e. only representing a node from another domain (MPI)
