31 High-level interface for energy balance modeling and thermal calculations.
33 This class provides a user-friendly wrapper around the native Helios
34 energy balance plugin with automatic plugin availability checking and
35 graceful error handling.
37 The energy balance model computes surface temperatures based on local energy
38 balance equations, including radiation absorption, convection, and transpiration.
39 It supports both steady-state and dynamic (time-stepping) calculations.
42 - NVIDIA GPU with CUDA support
43 - CUDA Toolkit installed

325 Enable the canopy airspace model.
327 Resolves the within-canopy air temperature and humidity surrounding leaves from a
328 vertically layered resistance network, instead of holding them at a prescribed
329 value, so the canopy feeds back on the air driving its own transpiration. The
330 airspace is divided into vertical layers of equal leaf area index, each exchanging
331 sensible heat and water vapor with its leaves, its neighboring layers and -- for
332 the outermost layers -- the soil surface and the above-canopy reference air.
334 Unlike :meth:`enableAirEnergyBalance`, which evolves a prognostic boundary layer
335 and thereby assumes a horizontally infinite canopy, this model suits canopies of
336 limited extent subject to advection, such as an orchard block. The two determine
337 the same air state and **may not both be enabled**.
339 Because it solves for a steady state, it cannot be combined with the form of
340 :meth:`run` that takes a timestep.
342 The above-canopy boundary condition is read from global data
343 ``air_temperature_reference``, ``air_humidity_reference`` and
344 ``wind_speed_reference`` when present, otherwise from this model's defaults. Set
345 them with :meth:`Context.setGlobalData` before calling :meth:`run`.
347 After :meth:`run`, primitive data ``air_temperature``, ``air_humidity`` and
348 ``wind_speed`` are set on the canopy primitives, and global data
349 ``canopy_air_temperature``, ``canopy_air_humidity``, their per-layer counterparts,
350 ``aerodynamic_resistance`` and ``canopy_airspace_iterations`` are reported.
353 canopy_UUIDs: Canopy (leaf) primitives exchanging heat and moisture with the airspace.
354 canopy_height_m: Height of the canopy in meters.
355 reference_height_m: Height at which above-canopy conditions are measured, in
356 meters. Must be greater than ``canopy_height_m``.
357 leaf_area_index: One-sided leaf area index on a ground-area basis.
358 num_layers: Number of vertical layers of equal leaf area index. 1 gives a
359 single within-canopy node.
360 ground_UUIDs: Ground primitives forming the soil node beneath the canopy. When
361 omitted there is no exchange with the soil surface.
