The Well (WEL) Package dialog

The Well (WEL) Package dialog is accessed by double-clicking on the WEL package under a MODFLOW 6 simulation in the Project Explorer. It contains the following sections and options:

  • Sections list – A list of sections that can be turned on or off:
    • Comments – Turn on to make the Comments section visible.
    • Options – Turn on to make the Options section visible.
    • Periods – Turn on to make the Periods section visible.
  • Comments section – Enter general alphanumeric comments. Comments entered here get written at the top of the file, preceded by a '#' symbol.
  • Options section – Temporal options and settings:
    • Auxiliary Variables... – Click to bring up the Auxiliary Variables dialog.
    • Time Series... – Click to bring up the Time Series Files dialog.
    • Observations... – Click to bring up the Observation Files dialog.
    • Use auxiliary variable as multiplier (AUXMULTNAME) – Name of auxiliary variable to be used as multiplier of well flow rate.
    • Allow boundary names (BOUNDNAMES) – Turn on to allow boundary names to be included in the list of well cells.
    • Print input to listing file (PRINT_INPUT) – Turn on to write the list of well information to the listing file immediately after it is read.
    • Print flows to listing file (PRINT_FLOWS) – Turn on to write the list of well flow rates to the listing file for every stress period time step in which "BUDGET PRINT" is specified in Output Control.
    • Save flows to budget file (SAVE_FLOWS) – Turn on to write well flow terms to the file specified with "BUDGET FILEOUT" in Output Control.
    • Use with Water Mover (MVR) package (MOVER) – Turn on to allows this instance of the Well Package to be used with the Water Mover (MVR) Package.
  • Periods section – Contains the following:
    • Period drop-down – Use the Increment Up and Down Increment up and down arrows.png buttons to select the desired period.
    • Define Period Add Note Icon.svg – If no period is defined, click to make the spreadsheet editable.
    • Delete Period GMS Delete Icon.svg – Click to delete the existing period.
    • Add Rows Row-add.svg – Click to bring up the GMS dialog and input values into the layer, row, column, and Q table found in the Periods section.
    • Delete Rows Row-delete.svg – Click to bring up a dialog with three options:
      • Delete from All Periods – Click to delete matching stresses from all periods.
      • Delete from Just This Period – Click to delete matching stresses from just this period.
    • Plot All Periods GMS MODFLOW 6 - Plot All Periods button.png – Click to bring up the XY Series Editor dialog. Requires that a cell be selected in the table.
    • Open Time Series Open Macro.svg – Click to bring up the
    • Filter on Selected Cells GMS MODFLOW 6 - Filter on Selected Cells button.png – Click to turn on filtering on the selected cells.
  • Table – Allows the manual input of the placement and rate of any wells placed within the module.
    • LAY – Represents which layer within the grid to which the chosen well will be assigned.
    • ROW – Represents which row within the grid to which the chosen well will be assigned.
    • COL – Represents which column within the grid to which the chosen well will be assigned.
    • Q – Represents the volumetric well rate at which the recharge (positive value) and discharge (negative value) of the well will be.
