BasinGeometry Properties

The BasinGeometry type exposes the following members.

Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyAreaInterpolation
Type of interpolation between levels.

If true, areas are interpolated linearly between levels.

If false, the basin is assumed to be conical, interpolation in cone radii is performed, giving the cone area at the level of interpolation. This is not interpolating linearly in the areas, instead it gives a geometrical more correct interpolation routine.

Public propertyFlowAreas
Flow area, cross sectional area perpendicular to main flow direction

This is used for head loss calculations between basin and connected reaches.

If flow areas are unknown, use the EstimateFlowAreas method to give an estimate based on a circular basin.

Public propertyLevels
Levels
Public propertyPorosity
Porosity.

If not defined, this is null.

Valid values are in the range ]0;1], 1 being fully void (default value) and zero having no void.

The values are step values, meaning that the porosity at position [i] is valid from level [i] to [i+1], no interpolation takes place.

Public propertySurfaceAreas
Surface areas for each level
Public propertySurfaceRadii
Radius of a circle matching the area of the level.

Computational parameter, used by the engines at runtime
