Inflow objects
Impervious surface
Definition of 0D inflow surface using the Dutch NWRW system. If you are using ‘impervious surfaces’, the inflow parameters are predefined for your convenience, in accordance to the Dutch NWRW model for sewerage inflow.
See Rainfall on 0D node (inflow) for further details.
Parameter |
Type |
Unit |
Description |
|---|---|---|---|
area |
decimal number |
m2 |
The area that is used to calculate the precipitation input to the inflow model. The area of the feature’s geometry is not used for this. |
surface_class |
text |
N/A |
Type of surface. See the table below. |
surface_inclination |
text |
N/A |
Surface slope type. See the table below. |
The parametrisation for the impervious surface types is fixed. It uses the following parameters:
Surface class |
Surface inclination |
Outflow delay \(k_q\) (min-1) |
Surface storage (mm) |
Infiltration (boolean) |
Maximum infiltration rate \(f_0\) (mm/h) |
Minimum infiltration rate \(f_c\) (mm/h) |
Infiltration decay constant \(k_d\) (h-1) |
Infiltration recovery constant \(k_r\) (h-1) |
