Temp Calibration changing WSEL

Wed, 10/13/2004 - 9:15am — ravery
Hello: I am calibrating temperature on a reservoir model v3.1. When I slightly change any parameter (e.g. WSC) the WSEL changes greatly. The preprocessor is returning no errors and only 20 warnings for cell width. For example: Cell width [B(12,4)=11.100] < or > 7x width [B(12,5)=113.000] Is this causing the WSEL to lose calibration? Are there any other checks I could perform to remedy this? Thanks, Ray ravery@uark.edu

Something very strange is going on. The only way that this could occur is if you have a HUGE wind blowing towards the dam that is causing a water surface setup. Adjusting WSC would have an impact on WSEL in this case. Otherwise, I would not expect to see much of an impact of WSC on WSEL.
