Constructor Detail

DarcyFlow

public DarcyFlow()
Creates the Darcy Flow tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.


DarcyFlow

public DarcyFlow(Object inHeadRaster,
                 Object inPorosityRaster,
                 Object inThicknessRaster,
                 Object inTransmissivityRaster,
                 Object outVolumeRaster)
Creates the Darcy Flow tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:
inHeadRaster - the input raster where each cell value represents the groundwater head elevation at that location. the head is typically an elevation above some datum, such as mean sea level.
inPorosityRaster - the input raster where each cell value represents the effective formation porosity at that location.
inThicknessRaster - the input raster where each cell value represents the saturated thickness at that location. the value for the thickness is interpreted from geological properties of the aquifer.
inTransmissivityRaster - the input raster where each cell value represents the formation transmissivity at that location. the transmissivity of an aquifer is defined as the hydraulic conductivity K times the saturated aquifer thickness b, as units of length squared over time. This property is generally estimated from field experimental data such as pumping tests. Tables 1 and 2 in How Darcy Flow and Darcy Velocity work list ranges of hydraulic conductivities for some generalized geologic materials.
outVolumeRaster - the output volume balance residual raster. each cell value represents the groundwater volume balance residual for steady flow in an aquifer, as determined by Darcy's Law.
