Full Equations (FEQ) Model for the Solution of the Full, Dynamic Equations of Motion for One-Dimensional Unsteady Flow in Open Channels and Through Control Structures

U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY WATER-RESOURCES INVESTIGATIONS REPORT 96-4240

13.4 Branch-Exterior Node Block--Branch-Exterior Node Table


Purpose: The relation between the branches and the branch-end nodes is supplied with this block so that the information in the Network-Matrix Control Block (section 13.6) will properly define a system of equations describing the flow in the stream system. This block is required only if ISTYLE=OLD is in the Run Control Block (section 13.1). It is retained for support of the stream systems modeled using FEQ versions prior to 7.0. If ISTYLE=NEW, this block should not appear in the input.

Heading:One line of user-selected information. The suggested string is BRANCH-EXTERIOR NODE.

LINE 1

Variable: HEAD

Format: A80

Example: BRAN UEXN DEXN

Explanation: This is a user-supplied heading for the subsequent lines of information.

LINE 2 (one for each branch)

Variables: BNUM, UEXN, DEXN

Format: 3I5

Explanation:

BNUM is the branch number.

UEXN is the upstream branch-end node number.

DEXN is the downstream branch-end node number.

The branches should be given in ascending order to make input easier to follow, but they need not be in ascending order.
