Water Quality
Canal Water Quality
Currently, water quality values will be propagated through the Canal object.
The current method passes a concentration through the canal in the direction of water flow. In order to dispatch, the canal must have an flow concentration which has been passed through the link of an adjoining reservoir’s Canal Flow constituent concentration.
