The Arc Properties dialog is where the parameters for an arc in a Boundary Conditions or Hydrograph coverage are defined. Only one type of boundary condition can be assigned to a feature object on a Boundary Conditions coverage. For Hydrograph coverages, "Hydrograph" is the only option available to assign to a feature object.

Head or Flux, Boundary Conditions Coverage

Head and Flux are two separate available arc property types, but the input options available are the same. Those input options are listed below.

  • Name
  • Domain: Porous media; the domain in which the boundary condition is applied.
    • Minimum sheet: boundary conditions will be applied between the minimum and maximum node sheets.
    • Maximum sheet: boundary conditions will be applied between the minimum and maximum node sheets.
    • Input type: how the boundary condition data is specified.
      • Constant
        • Constant (start): constant value of the boundary condition at the start of the arc.
        • Constant (end): constant value of the boundary condition at the end of the arc.
      • Time series
        • Time series (start): time-varying values of the boundary condition at the start of the arc.
        • Time series (end): time-varying values of the boundary condition at the end of the arc.
        • Interpolate: causes time-varying values to be interpolated, resulting in a smoother application of the time-varying function.
        • Map to grid boundary: map boundary condition to the boundary of the grid (not the interior).
  • Domain: Surface flow; the domain in which the boundary condition is applied.
    • Input type: how the boundary condition data is specified.
      • Constant
        • Constant (start): constant value of the boundary condition at the start of the arc.
        • Constant (end): constant value of the boundary condition at the end of the arc.
        • Map to grid boundary: map boundary condition to the boundary of the grid (not the interior).
      • Time series
        • Time series (start): time-varying values of the boundary condition at the start of the arc.
        • Time series (end): time-varying values of the boundary condition at the end of the arc.
        • Interpolate: causes time-varying values to be interpolated, resulting in a smoother application of the time-varying function.
        • Map to grid boundary: map boundary condition to the boundary of the grid (not the interior).

Simple river or Simple drain, Boundary Conditions Coverage

Simple river and Simple are two separate available arc property types, but the input options available are the same. Those input options are listed below.

  • Name
    • Input type: how the boundary condition data is specified.
      • Constant
        • Constant (start): constant value of the boundary condition at the start of the arc.
        • Constant (end): constant value of the boundary condition at the end of the arc.
      • Map to grid boundary: map boundary condition to the boundary of the grid (not the interior).
      • Time series
        • Time series (start): time-varying values of the boundary condition at the start of the arc.
        • Time series (end): time-varying values of the boundary condition at the end of the arc.
        • Interpolate: causes time-varying values to be interpolated, resulting in a smoother application of the time-varying function.
        • Map to grid boundary: map boundary condition to the boundary of the grid (not the interior).

Critical depth, Boundary Conditions Coverage

  • Name
      • Transient: option to define a time value table to turn the boundary condition on and off. Values of -99999 indicate that the BC is turned off.
        • Time series: Time value table. Values of -99999 indicate that the BC is turned off.
      • Map to grid boundary: map boundary condition to the boundary of the grid (not the interior).

Hydrograph, Hydrograph Coverage

  • Name: a descriptive name for the hydrograph, which can be up to 80 characters.
  • Map to grid boundary: map grid to the boundary of the grid, not the interior.
