transient¶
result = transient(elevation, recharge, transmissivity, flowCondition, storageCoefficient, timestep, tolerance)
- elevation

- transmissivity
scalar; spatial, non-spatial ([L2 T-1])
- flowCondition
nominal; spatial, non-spatial
- storageCoefficient
scalar; spatial, non-spatial ([L3 L-3])
- timestep

- tolerance
scalar; non-spatial
- result
scalar; spatial
Operation¶
This function calculates the groundwater head of an aquifer system according to the Gauss-Seidel iteration and Crank-Nicolson method (Wang & Anderson).
The flowCondition
indicates whether cells are either inactive (0), active (1) or have a constant head (2).
The tolerance
specifies the maximum difference between the current elevation and the new elevation.
