Pump (Water Overlay)

Pumps are constructions which can move water against its natural flow. Specifically, a pump with a positive pump speed will pump water from the entry point with a lower water level to the entry point with a higher water level. If no (differing) water levels are defined, the surface height is used instead.

The pump's direction does not change during the simulation.

A pump is a line-based construction. Template:Overlay attribute

Notes

• A negative value for the PUMP_Q attribute is also allowed, in which case water can be pumped in the reverse direction. Sometimes referred to as draining.
