The flexible distribution can be activated in the global properties, setting VERDELING_FLEX=Flex. For usual calculation: VERDELING_FLEX=.
The different options are also shown in the figure below. With blue color, the original distribution of the discharge, this data is provide to QWAST. We compare three calculations:
1) no flex version (organge): the points correspond to the dicharge distribution provided to QWAST (Blue color on the lower figure)
2) flex version with no minimum discharge on the "Nederrijn" (yellow): the results do not correspond all the time to the discharge distribution provided to QWAST. At those points the water was needed to keep the water level of the "IJsselmeer" high enough. It can occur that the "Nederrijn" has almost zero discharge. (Red color of the lower figure)
3) Flex version with minimum discharge on the "Nederrijn" (gray): similar to the above results, but the discharge of the "Nederrijn" was set to be at least 10m3/s. It can be seen that indeed, it never goes below 10m3/s. In this scenario the level of the IJsselmeer is less close to the desired level than in option 2. (Green color of the lower figure)
