Pump formula (Water Overlay)

The flow created by a pump is calculated based on the lowest end point of the pump.

Δw = min( WH_lower , Δt * PS )

Where:

• Δw = The amount water water pumped from the lower to the higher endpoint.
• Δt = Computational timestep.

• WH_lower = The height of the water column at the lower end of the pump, relative to the terrain.
• PS = The PUMP_Q of the pump.
