The model consist of two solvers, one is used for the inefficient drainage system (IDSSolver) and the other one for the efficient drainage system (EPLSolver). Each compute the water head by mean of a diffusion equation based on Darcy's law. The two can be coupled by a transfer equation (a UserFunction is associated for this purpose)
Two basic tests can be found in [ELMER_TRUNK]/elmerice/Tests/Hydro_SedOnly
and [ELMER_TRUNK]/elmerice/Tests/Hydro_Coupled
.
