For .csv files, the name of the first column of data (usually time values) in the .csv Source File. Other examples besides Time are Flow for a HQ (stage-discharge) boundary, or Mean Water Level for each wave component in a 2D HS (sinusoidal wave) boundary.
For ESTRY fixed field boundary files (.eef or .ebc), the Node ID of the BC data. Note, the Node ID is limited to 5 characters.
For TUFLOW fixed field boundary files (.tef or .tbc) the BC ID number.
For RAFTS-XP (.tot or .loc), WBNM _Meta.out and TUFLOW/ESTRY .ts1 files, the name of the hydrograph location to extract.
Note, from Build 2002 10 AJ, it is now NOT possible to combine the Value and ID keywords in the column label, for example “Value or ID” as shown in the example in Section 3.17.2. If they are combined, the default column number of 4 is used.
4
Add Col 1
or TimeAdd
An amount to add to all Column 1 (normally time) values (eg. a time shift) for the BC data event. If left blank or zero, there is no change to the time values.
This field is ignored for Blank Source entries.
5
Mult Col 2
or ValueMult
A multiplication factor to apply to the Column 2 values. If left blank or one (1), there is no change to the values. Note, Mult Col 2 is applied before Add Col 2 below.
This field is ignored for Blank Source entries.
6
Add Col 2
or ValueAdd
An amount to add to Column 2 values. If left blank or zero, there is no change to the values. Note, Add Col 2 is applied after Mult Col 2.
This field is ignored for Blank Source entries.
7
Column 3
For .csv files, the name of the third column of data when a third column of data is required. For example, the phase difference for each wave component in a 2D HS (sinusoidal wave) boundary.
For all other types of Source entries, leave this field blank.
8
Column 4
For .csv files, the name of the fourth column of data when a fourth column of data is required. For example, the period for each wave component in a 2D HS (sinusoidal wave) boundary.
For all other types of Source entries, leave this field blank.
9
1 If the keyword is not found in the “Name, Source” line, the default column is used to define the column of data for that keyword.
