PUMP_AREA | boolean | 0 to 1 | When true the Pump is spread across the entire building surface. | 0 |
-
A pump consisting of one line area, with one entry point for the lower and one for the upper Water level areas. It uses a single cell to subtract water, which may be insufficient for high flow rates. -
The base type overlay indicating that only one cell is used to subtract water from. -
A pump consisting of two separate areas, one for the lower and one for the upper Water level areas. It uses a lower level threshold and requires multiple grid cells to subtract enough water. It is configured as a PUMP_AREA. -
The base type overlay indicating that this pump now uses multiple cells to subtract water from.
Notes
- Selecting this option is useful when the PUMP_Q value is too large for a single cell.
- This requires the pump to consist of 2 discrete polygons. This can either be as a single section with 2 separate polygons, or as 2 separate sections with 1 polygon each.
