Hi everyone.

I'm trying to simulate evapotranspiration and I have a doubt. I'm applying using a math expression in in/outflow on top/bottom and it works, but I don't know why is evaporating from the whole model and not only my defined area to the in/outflow...

Any idea how it works? or how a I could deal with this problem?

Thanks!

Franco

Hi Tomás,
With your explanation, it looks to me that the expression does not spatially constraint the operation. A mathematical expression is applied to the FEFLOW's parameter and to all the mesh elements (automatically). So, you need to reformulate the express, eg. to apply the In/Outflow on top/bottom only to specific areas. A tip: Expressions works also with Elemental User Distributions. You can use them for creating the constraints.
Please follow-up with our technical support at mike.de@dhigroup.com for details on the workflows.
