Input Gate
Overview:
Gate inputs are time series assignments to gate structure physical and operational parameters.
Tables:
INPUT_GATE
A gate input assigns time varying properties to to gate parameters, The table assigns a time series data source.
Gate paths in DSS should be of data type INST-VAL as opposed to PER-AVER (which provide for better viewing in HECDSSVue) else it is possible that gate does not operate as expected.
Field Descriptions
GATE_NAME
This must be the same as the name of the gate.
DEVICE
This must be the same as the name of the gate device. Generally all the variables except "install" are device specific. If the variable is "install" set the device to "none".
VARIABLE
The variable that is set by this assignment.
FILLIN
Method for filling in data if the time step of the assigned series is coarser than the time step of the model. See fillin types
FILE
DSS or text file in which data are stored. Use consistent case when referring to the same file. You may also enter the word constant if you would like to assign a constant value to the input (the value will be entered in the next column).
PATH
The path within the text or DSS file of the time series data. If you used the constant keyword in the Input File column, enter the value (e.g. 4.22) here.
