It can be set or retrieved with the `EN_setoption` and `EN_getoption` functions, respectively, and is saved to the file when the `EN_saveinpfile` function is called. @@ -24,11 +24,9 @@ This document describes the changes and updates that have been made in version 2 - dropping the check for identical status report content since it prevents accepting code changes that produce more accurate solutions in fewer iterations. - A possible loss of network connectivity when evaluating a Pressure Sustaining Valve was prevented. - Having the implied loss coefficient for an active Flow Control Valve be less than its fully opened value was prevented. - - A new type of valve, a Positional Control Valve (PCV), was added that uses a valve characteristic curve to relate its loss coefficient to its fraction open setting (`EN_PCV`). + - A new type of valve, a Positional Control Valve (PCV), was added. It uses a valve characteristic curve to relate its loss coefficient to a percentage open setting (parameter - `EN_PCV`). - `EN_VALVE_CURVE` can now be used with the `EN_getcurvetype` and `EN_setcurvetype` to get or set the valve position curve. - - The index of a Positional Control Valve (PCV) was added to the list of editable Link Properties using the symbolic constant name `EN_PCV_CURVE`. - - `EN_PCV_CURVE` can now be used with the `EN_getlinkvalue` and `EN_setlinkvalue` to get or set a PCV's curve. - - A new set of functions has been added to get information about upcoming time step events. Users will now see what type of event is going to cause the end of a time step to occur.

Users will now see what type of event is going to cause the end of a time step to occur. See `EN_timetonextevent`. - A new set of functions has been added to allow users to set a reporting callback function. The user-supplied function will receive all output normally directed to the report file. - A `EN_EMITBACKFLOW` option was added that either allows emitters to have reverse flow through them (the default) or not. - An incorrect tank elevation value set using `EN_settankdata` with SI units has been fixed.
