Heat Source 9

Current Version: heatsource 9.0.0b28 (beta 28)

1.0 ABOUT

Heat Source is a computer model used by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality to simulate stream thermodynamics and hydraulic routing. It was originally developed by Matt Boyd in 1996 as a Master's Thesis at Oregon State University in the Departments of Bioresource Engineering and Civil Engineering. Since then, it has grown and changed significantly. Oregon DEQ currently maintains the Heat Source methodology and computer programming. Appropriate model use and application are the sole responsibility of the user.

2.0 INSTALL

There are two options for installing and running Heat Source 9:

1. Download the windows executables. Place the executables in the directory with your model files. Double-click the executable to run the model. That's it. Python installation is not required. These executables were developed on Windows 10. They have not been tested on other versions of Windows.

2. Install the model as a Python pacakge. Requires install of Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, or 3.12. https://www.python.org/downloads/

After python has been installed, install the heat source package from command line using pip.

# This command installs heat source version 9.0.0b28 directly from the GitHub repository.
pip install "git+https://github.com/DEQrmichie/[email protected]"

Alternatively, the package can be installed by downloading the heat source python wheel appropriate to your OS platform and python version. Python wheels have been built to support Windows, Mac, and Linux. DEQ uses windows so other platforms have limited testing. We've heard folks having success on both Mac and Linux. After downloading the wheel, install from command line using pip.

# These commands are for windows
cd path\to\directory_where_the_heatsource9_wheel_was_saved\
py -m pip install <name of wheel file>

# Installs the Python 3.12 heatsource wheel for windows in the local directory
py -m pip install heatsource9-9.0.0b28-cp312-cp312-win32.whl --user

# Installs the Python 3.12 heatsource wheel for windows in the global directory
py -m pip install heatsource9-9.0.0b28-cp312-cp312-win32.whl

3.0 QUICK STEPS TO GET GOING

1. Place the control file (HeatSource_Control.xlsx) and the model run scripts in the same directory. You can generate a template control file by executing hs_setup_control_file.py or by using commend line.

   cd path\to\model_directory
   hs setup -cf

2. Open the control file and parameterize it with your model information. The control file must be named HeatSource_Control.xlsx

3. Use hs9_setup_model_inputs.py to build template input files or by using commend line. The input files will be saved to the input file directory that is specified in the control file.

   cd path\to\model_directory
   hs setup -mi

4. Add the input data to the template files.

5. Run the model by executing one of the following model python scripts/executables:

   • hs9_run_hydraulics
   • hs9_run_solar
   • hs9_run_temperature

   Or use command line to run the model:

   cd path\to\model_directory
   hs run -t

   A console should open, and you should see the model running.

6. Outputs are saved in the output directory (specified in the control file).

4.0 CSV MODE

By default, the template control file and input files are written as Excel files (.xlsx). Some users may want to use csv formatted files instead. To switch from Excel to csv, resave the control file as a csv (UTF-8 Unicode). A template csv control file can also be generated from command line using the following:

hs setup -cf -csv

The model will read/and write input files using the same format as the control file. If the control file is formatted as a csv, the input files must also be csv. If the control file is an Excel file (.xlsx), the input files must also be saved as Excel files. Model output files are always written as csv (UTF-8 Unicode) files.

5.0 Using Command Line

Heat Source can be setup and run directly from command line.

usage: hs [options] commands:

run Command to run a model with arguments -t | -s | -hy
setup Command to set up a model with arguments -cf | -mi

run options:
  -h, --help    show this help message
  -t, --temperature    Runs a temperature model.
  -s, --solar    Runs solar routines only.
  -hy, --hydraulics    Runs hydraulics only.

setup options:
  -h, --help show this help message
  -cf, --control-file Writes a blank control file.
  -mi, --model-inputs Write blank input files. Control file must already be parameterized.
  -t, --timestamp Use -t to add a timestamp to the file name.
  -csv, --csv-mode Use -csv to write a csv (Unicode UTF-8) formatted control file instead of .xlsx. Default is .xlsx.
  -o, --overwrite Use -o to overwrite any existing file.

other options
-h, --help show this help message
-v The heat source version and install directory.
-md [MODEL_DIR], --model-dir [MODEL_DIR]
Path to the model directory. If not used the default is current
working directory.

6.0 MODEL FILES

The following table summarizes what input files are needed to run each type of model. More specific details about the format and content of each input file is included in the sections below.

Key to model input information:
Required: Input value required
Required (Not Used): Input value required but not used other than for model setup. This may be changed in future versions
Optional : Input value optional (can be left blank).

General Information

1. The control file and input files are set up as excel (.xlsx) files by default. They can also be csv (UTF-8) comma delimited files.
2. The heat source control file must be named HeatSource_Control.[xlsx|csv].
3. The other input files can be named whatever you want (file names are specified in the control file).
4. The column header names can be changed but the data needs to be in the correct column number.
5. Use the specified unit and data formats identified in the control file and input files. Example yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm is 2001-07-01 16:00
6. An input parameter value that is optional may be left blank although all values with float data type will be assigned as zero.

To write blank input files from a python script:

# requires a parameterized control file 
from heatsource9 import BigRedButton

control_file = 'HeatSource_Control.xlsx'
model_dir = r'C://path/to/model_directory/'

BigRedButton.setup_mi(model_dir, control_file,
                      use_timestamp=True, overwrite=False)

To write a blank inputs files from command line:

hs setup -mi

6.1 CONTROL FILE

HeatSource_Control.xlsx

xlsx sheet name: Control Settings

The control file is where most of the model operation and initial parameterization is set. Do not change the key names in the control file. Only change the VALUE column (column 4).

To write a blank template control file from a python script:

from heatsource9 import BigRedButton

control_file = 'HeatSource_Control.xlsx'
model_dir = r'C://path/to/model_directory/'

BigRedButton.setup_cf(model_dir, control_file,
                      use_timestamp=False, overwrite=False)

To write a blank template control file from command line:

cd path\to\model_directory
hs setup -cf

The control file can also parameterized in python directly using **kwargs. Any control file key arguments passed will be written into the output csv.

from heatsource9 import BigRedButton
from os.path import join

control_file = 'HeatSource_Control.xlsx'
model_dir = r'C://path/to/model_directory/'

6.2 ACCRETION INPUT FILE

UserDefinedFileName.xlsx

xlsx sheet name: Accretion Flow

The temperature and flow rates of accretion are defined in this file.

Accretion flows are inflows that enter the stream over more than one stream data node, and typically are subsurface seeps that occur over longer distances than discrete subsurface inflows (i.e. a spring).

When accretion flows are close enough so that more than one occurs in a model distance step, the accretion flow rates will be summed and a flow based average accretion temperature will be derived and used in the mixing calculations.

6.5 TRIBUTARY INPUT FILE/S

UserDefinedFileName.xlsx

xlsx sheet name: Tributary Data

The tributary input files define the inflow/outflow rates and temperatures at different points along the model stream. Inflows refers to localized (non-accretion) type flows such as tributaries, springs, returns, and point sources, etc. Outflows can be various types of water withdrawals. Outflows are input with a negative flow rate. Temperatures for outflows are not used by the model.

The number and stream km of the inflow/outflows is defined in the control file. The flow and temperature are defined at an hourly timestep.

6.6 LAND COVER CODES FILE

UserDefinedFileName.xlsx

xlsx sheet name: Land Cover Codes

The land cover codes file contains the physical attribute information associated with each land cover code. Land cover codes can be alphanumeric values. Zero should be avoided as a land cover code. The physical attribute such as height, canopy cover, LAI, or overhang must be numeric. There cannot be skipped rows (i.e. rows without information in between rows with information) because the model routines see a blank row as the end of the data sequence.

6.6.1 Canopy Type

land cover canopy information can be input as either canopy cover or effective leaf area index. This option is specified in the control file using the key canopy_data.

Canopy Cover
