User:Mburton/HydroGeoSphere Point Properties Dialog

The Point Properties dialog in the HydroGeoSphere model is where the nodes associated with the boundary conditions are defined.

Flux nodal Parameters

• Name: the name of the boundary condition. Names should be unique and contain no white space.
• Domain: the domain in which the boundary conditions are applied.
  • Porous media
    • Minimum sheet: the minimum node sheet; boundary conditions are applied between the minimum and maximum node sheets.
    • Maximum sheet: the maximum node sheet; boundary conditions are applied between the minimum and maximum node sheets.
    • Input type: how the boundary condition data is specified.
      • Time series: time-varying values of the boundary condition. A table is generated using the XY Series Editor dialog that is opened by clicking the Edit XY Series button by either manually entering the data, or importing the data.
  • Surface flow
    • Input type: how the boundary condition data is specified.
      • Constant: constant value of the boundary condition.
      • Time series: time-varying values of the boundary condition. A table is generated using the XY Series Editor dialog that is opened by clicking the Edit XY Series button by either manually entering the data, or importing the data.
      • Time raster table: the Edit Table... opens the Time raster table dialog where the data is entered by selecting a raster from outside GMS.
    • Interpolate: causes time-varying values to be interpolated, resulting in a smoother application of the time-varying function.
    • Nodal flux reduction by pressure head: reduces flux as a function of the nodal pressure head to avoid pumping from the dry materials.
