Fluid Balance Options

Select any combination of the following fluid balance components to be written to auxiliary output file (file09.out) at every time step. For each selected component, 3 entries are written: total for simulation, total for time step, and rate for time step.

Specified head, In: Fluid flow into domain across specified pressure and total head boundaries

Specified head, Out: Fluid flow out of domain across specified pressure and total head boundaries and seepage faces

Specified Flux, In: Fluid flow into domain across specified flux boundaries

Specified Flux, Out: Fluid flow out of domain across specified flux boundaries

Total Fluid, In: Total fluid flow into domain

Total Fluid, Out: Total fluid flow out of domain

Evaporation: Fluid flow out of domain by evaporation (over bare soil)

Transpiration: Fluid flow out of domain by transpiration (plant root extraction).

Evaporation + Transpiration: Fluid flow out of domain by evaporation and transpiration

Change in Fluid Storage: Change in fluid stored in domain

Fluid Balance: Total fluid in - total fluid out - change in fluid storage.
