Just as a consumer can receive external contributions, it can also deliver water to areas outside of the modelled system. Such a situation exists e.g. if a waterworks facility has to serve several supply areas, of which at least one is not part of the modeled system. Or if a sewer system discharges water into an body of water outside of the modeled system. Also, it can be used to model the transfer of water from the modeled system to another system. In such a case, a consumer behaves like a diversion, where three different concepts are conceivable (for a detailed explanation of the options, see the diversion element).
- Threshold value concept
- If the return flow from the consumer exceeds a certain threshold value, the portion of flow above the threshold value is diverted and not returned to the system.
- Percentage distribution
- A certain percentage of the water flowing back to the system from the consumer is diverted to an external area and not returned to the system.
- Diversion according to a rating curve
- The amount of flow diverted to external areas depends on the current return flow of the consumer.
