Point Source

Point sources are the interfaces to the outside. They provide loads for the hydrological system either in the form of a constant hydrograph, which consists of an average value combined with annual, weekly or daily patterns, or a time series, which is managed in the Time series manager. This makes it possible to introduce observed or generated loads into the hydrological system. An interface to other models is provided by the possibility of importing external data into the Time series manager.
A single loader offers two different options for entering the load:
- Option 1
- as constant chart, which repeats daily, monthly and yearly
- Option 2
- as measured or generated time series from the time series administration
In addition to the load in the form of outflow, the individual point sources can also bring in substances into the system. The options for the input are similar to those of the outflow, although you can additionally select whether the input is to be interpreted as freight in kg/s or as concentration in mg/l. The input is only effective if an outflow > 0 m³/s is entered.
