| Name | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
allocation penalty
The cost per unit flow via the node
Optional
min_volume
The minimum volume of the storage. Defaults to 0.0
Optional
max_volume
The maximum volume of the storage. Defaults to 0.0
Required, otherwise defaults to 0
initial_volume, initial_volume_pc
Specify initial volume in either absolute or proportional terms. Both are required if max_volume is a parameter because the parameter will not be evaluated at the first time-step. If both are given and max_volume is not a Parameter, then the absolute value is ignored
One is required
area, level
Optional float or Parameter defining the area and level of the storage node. These values are accessible through the get_area and get_level methods respectively
Optional
evaporation, precipitation
Evaporation and precipitation rates (length/day)
Optional
unit_conversion
Conversion factor to convert precipitation and evaporation to required length/day units
Optional, default is 0.001 to convert mm/day for use with km2 reservoir area
evaporation penalty (evaporation cost)
Allocation penalty set on the evaporation output
Optional, defaults to -999
