Bases: Xsection

Cross-section inhomogeneity consisting of stacked aquifer layers.

Vertical resistance is computed from vertical hydraulic conductivity and the anisotropy factor.

Parameters:
  • model (Model) – Model to add the cross-section to, usually an instance of ModelXsection.

  • x1 (scalar) – x-coordinate of the left boundary of the cross-section.

  • x2 (scalar) – x-coordinate of the right boundary of the cross-section.

  • kaq (array) – Hydraulic conductivities of the aquifers.

  • z (array) – Elevations of the tops and bottoms of the layers.

  • Saq (array) – Specific storage of the aquifers.

  • kzoverkh (scalar) – Ratio of vertical hydraulic conductivity to horizontal hydraulic conductivity.

  • poraq (array) – Porosities of the aquifers.

  • topboundary (str) – Type of top boundary. Can be ‘conf’ for confined, ‘semi’ for semi-confined or “leaky” for a leaky top boundary.

  • phreatictop (bool) – If true, interpret the first specific storage coefficient as specific yield., i.e. it is not multiplied by aquifer thickness.

  • topres (scalar) – Resistance of the top boundary. Only used if topboundary is ‘leaky’.

  • topthick (scalar) – Thickness of the top boundary. Only used if topboundary is ‘leaky’.

  • topSll (scalar) – Specific storage of the top boundary. Only used if topboundary is ‘leaky’.

  • toppor (scalar) – Porosity of the top boundary. Only used if topboundary is ‘leaky’.

  • tsandhstar (list of tuples) – list containing time and water level pairs for the hstar boundary condition.

  • tsandN (list of tuples) – list containing time and infiltration pairs for the infiltration boundary condition.

  • name (str) – Name of the cross-section.
