reservoirRouting.base {RHMS}

base function for class of reservoirRouting

Description

function for routing flood through a reservoir using classical Muskingum technique

Usage

## S3 method for class 'base'
reservoirRouting(inflow, geometry,initialStorage,simulation)

Arguments

inflow

a vector of in (cms) presenting a runoff event generated by excess rainfall computed by loss methods or an object inherited from any of the following classes :transform ; reachRouting ; reservoirRouting.

geometry

a list of geometric specifications of the reservoir:

• storageElevationCurve: a data frame: a data frame at which its first collumn includes height (masl) and second collums presents equivalant volume to the height at first collumn (MCM)

• dischargeElevationCurve: a data frame: a data frame at which its first collumn includes height (masl) and second collums presents equivalant discharge rate to the height at first collumn (cms)

• storage: the maximum volume of reservoir capacity (MCM)

initialStorage

(optional) the initial storage of reservoir at the first time step of simulation (MCM). default to the capacity.

simulation

a list of simulation time and dates as below:

• start: the date which simulation starts, must be in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format

• start: the date which simulation ends, must be in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format

• by: the interval of each steps in seconds

Value

a data.frame: including inflow time series and routing resaults
