BarrelStorage Properties |
The RainBarrelBarrelStorage type exposes the following members.
Properties| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Depth |
Current depth of storage. State variable [meter].
|
| Drain | Current storage drain flux [m/s] |
| DrainageCapacity |
Capacity for drain [m/s]
The actual drain flow depends on the BarrelArea. If DrainageExponent > 0, then drain flow also depends on the head. Default value: 0. Unit: [meter/second]. |
| DrainageDelay |
Delay in drainage, i.e. time after end of rain before
drainage starts.
Default value: 0. Unit: [s]. |
| DrainageExponent |
Exponent for drain flow calculations [-]
The drain capacity flow is multiplied with Math.Pow(head, DrainageExponent) If DrainageExponent is zero, then drain flow is constant and independent on the head. Default value: 0. Unit: [-]. |
| DrainageInfiltrationFactor |
Factor specifying how much of the drain flow that is infiltrated.
A factor of 1 means that all drain flow is infiltrated and no drain flow is returned as runoff. A factor of 0 means that all drain flow is returned as runoff. Default value: 0. Unit: [s]. |
| DrainageOffset |
Offset where drainage starts.
Height of any underdrain piping above the bottom of the barrel Default value: 0. Unit: [meter]. |
| Height |
Height of barrel storage
Default value: 0. Unit: [meter]. |
| Infiltration | Current Infiltration flux [m/s] |
| Volume |
Volume of water per area [m] contained in storage - same as Depth |
