Pumped Storage Reservoirs
Previously the Pumped Storage Reservoir Unit Pump Power method only worked correctly when there was a single pump type. The method has been enhanced to work with multiple pump types. The pumps are added in the best efficiency order to meet the specified Pumped Flow, Pump Power or Pumps Used.
Water User and Agg Diversion Site
Supplemental Diversions with Soil Moisture on a Sequential Agg Diversion Site
Modifications were made to allow Water User code to allow Supplemental Diversions with Soil Moisture on a sequential Agg Diversion Site. Now the user can select
Supplement Diversion with Soil Moisture from the Conjunctive Use category on a water user element when using the Sequential structure. See
Supplement Diversion including Soil Moisture in Objects and Methods for more information.
Reach and Distribution Canal
Conductance Factor
On the Reach and Distribution Canal, a new Conductance Factor series slot with periodic input was added to the Head Based Seepage method. If the slot has a valid value, it is included in the seepage calculation as follows:
The Conductance Factor slot allows you to adjust the conductance within a run due to canal lining or other conditions where the conductance is not constant.
See
Head Based Seepage in Objects and Methods for details on the distribution canal method.
