Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / water management
Spanish term or phrase: condiciónde contorno
Hi, I'd appreciate your help with this term.

The text is about water management.

Context is:
Para la ejecución del programa se requieren datos generales que especifican las condiciones del cálculo que se va a realizar, y datos hidráulicos del cauce.
-Datos generales: el tipo de régimen (lento o rápido), la condición de contorno aguas arriba (hidrogramas calculados), la condición de contorno aguas abajo (en este caso podría ser el nivel máximo en el mar Caspio), etc.
-Datos de cauce: características de las secciones (dadas por sus coordenadas), datos de obstáculos (puentes, azudes) o de obras (encauzamientos), coeficientes de rugosidad de las secciones (Manning) y de contracción y expansión en los obstáculos.
