7. EQUATIONS OF MOTION FOR DUMMY BRANCHES AND LEVEL-POOL RESERVOIRS
The equations of motion that apply to dummy branches and level-pool reservoirs are presented and approximated in this section. Examples of conditions that may be simulated with dummy branches and level-pool reservoirs are described in sections 3.1.2 and 3.1.3, respectively. Changes in water volume and the momentum content of that water can be important factors in a branch; however, changes in water volume but not momentum content are important in a level-pool reservoir, and neither changes in water volume nor changes in momentum content are important in a dummy branch.
