Pumps are hydraulic structures can pump water from areas with a lower water level to areas with a higher water level. A negative pump speed is also allowed. In this article we will refer to this as a drain.
The amount being pumped or drained is dependent on the water levels on both sides of the pump.
Case 1: Pump:
First the capacities are calculated.
If a positive Pump q is defined:
- Qp,t = Δt * qt
If a lower threshold Tl is defined as well:
- Qlth = max ( 0, wt,l - Tl,t )
If an upper threshold Tl is defined as well:
- Quth = max ( 0, Tl,t- wt,u )
If a capacity Qtotal is defined:
- Qc = Qtotal- ΣQ0..t-1
After calculating the capacities, the actual water pumped upwards is calculated. If any of the terms are undefined, they are not included.
- Δw = max( 0 , min( Qlth,Quth , Qt , Qc ) ) / A
Where:
- wt = The water level on at time t, relative to datum.
- Tl,t = The LOWER_THRESHOLD attribute of the inlet at time t.
- Tu,t = The UPPER_THRESHOLD attribute of the inlet at time t.
- qt = INLET_Q attribute at time t.
- Δt = Computational timestep.
- Qtotal = The INLET_CAPACITY attribute of the inlet.
- Q0..n = The calculated previous amounts of flow.
- Qlth = The amount of water inflow desired based on the inlet's LOWER_THRESHOLD attribute.
- Quth = The amount of water outflow desired based on the outlet's UPPER_THRESHOLD attribute.
- Qt = The amount of water inflow (or outflow when negative) possible based on the INLET_Q attribute and timestep Δt.
- Qc = The amount of water outflow possible based on the total capacity of the outlet.
- A = Size of the Inlet/Outlet area in m2, based on the amount of cells and cell size. Current implementation only has one cell.
- Δw = The amount of water flow which takes place.
