Re: Boundary condition (time variant)   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #177 of 223 |
Pete,
I have a terrible doubt now. If I define a power function (for a head
boundary condition for example) file like the following one

!
! t [d] fvalue
!---------------------
730 334
1460 334

does it mean that the head boundary condition is off between 0 and
730? Running the model I noticed that is not like that but if I do not
want the boundary condition ON I have to use a fake head and a
constrain that is able to disable it between 0 and 730.

Giovanni

Thanks Pete. You are right, I figured out that Feflow interpolates the values at t=0 and t=730. As you said the only way to switch off the 1st boundary ...
