Sources

Point sources of suspended sediment are important in many applications as e.g. release of sediments from rivers, intakes and outlets from cooling water or desalination plants.

In the Sand Transport Module the source concentrations of each component in every sources point can be specified. The number of sources, their generic names, location and discharges magnitude are specified in the Sources dia­log in the HYDRODYNAMIC MODULE.

Depending on the choice of property page you can see a geographic view or a list view of the sources.

The source concentrations are specified individually for each source and each component. From the list view you can go to the dialog for specification by clicking on the “Go to..” button.
