Jason,
I would say that it depends on your objective. If you just want to describe
a steady-state well-defined flow system, you can do as you said, no problem.
Just remember that the flow model that you created using constant head
is absolutely rigid. This kind of model may not work well if you need to
verify the model response for stresses, mainly if the stress (a well, for
instance) is located close to the boundary condition.

I want to develop a simple 1 layer model and was wondering if I could use constant head boundaries on the upgradient and downgradient sides ends of my model...
