Evaporation of the soil

Extends from BondLib.Interfaces.TwoPort (Partial model invoking two bondgraphic connectors).

Information

This model computes the evaporation of the soil. It uses the generic evaporation model together with an internal modulation computing the conductance of evaporation.


Parameters:

  ag:      Ground area of Biosphere (default value = 2368.9 m2)

  hai:     Convection coefficient equation intercept (default value = 39.6 kJ/(h.m2.K))

  apix:    Portion of Biosphere covered by pond (default value = 0.4)

  lambda:  Latent heat of vaporization (default value = 2501 kJ/kg_water)

  rg:      Specific ground resistance of evaporation to vapor diffusion (default value = 0.0278 h.m2/kg_air)

  pao:     Atmospheric pressure (default value = 87.848 kPa)
