flopy.mf6.modflow.mfgwfic module

class ModflowGwfic(model, loading_package=False, strt=1.0, filename=None, pname=None, parent_file=None)[source]

Bases: flopy.mf6.mfpackage.MFPackage

ModflowGwfic defines a ic package within a gwf6 model.

Parameters:
  • model (MFModel) – Model that this package is a part of. Package is automatically added to model when it is initialized.
  • loading_package (bool) – Do not set this parameter. It is intended for debugging and internal processing purposes only.
  • strt ([double]) –
    • strt (double) is the initial (starting) head—that is, head at the beginning of the GWF Model simulation. STRT must be specified for all simulations, including steady-state simulations. One value is read for every model cell. For simulations in which the first stress period is steady state, the values used for STRT generally do not affect the simulation (exceptions may occur if cells go dry and (or) rewet). The execution time, however, will be less if STRT includes hydraulic heads that are close to the steady-state solution. A head value lower than the cell bottom can be provided if a cell should start as dry.
  • filename (String) – File name for this package.
  • pname (String) – Package name for this package.
  • parent_file (MFPackage) – Parent package file that references this package. Only needed for utility packages (mfutl*). For example, mfutllaktab package must have a mfgwflak package parent_file.
