Description
Return volume-weighted support of internal flow records.
Aquaponic records allocate supplied bed area, tank volume, shared resources and observation support. A ratio or target gap depends on what is counted once and on the caller’s chosen target; it does not select a stocking, feeding or plant-production recommendation.
Return volume-weighted support of internal flow records.
When to use this tool
Use Internal Flow Support Share when checking the stated aquaponic allocation, target or record-support convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter internalFlows, durations, measured, sourceVerified. Follow any array-alignment requirements below. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read totalInternalVolume, supportedVolume, share, defined. Inspect defined before interpreting the associated values.
Return volume-weighted support of internal flow records. Require aligned nonnegative flows/durations; total sums flow*time, supported requires both measured/sourceVerified flags, share divides or is undefined at zero volume.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| internalFlows | Internal Flows | Required. Array of finite number; maximum items 256. |
| durations | Durations | Required. Array of finite number; maximum items 256. |
| measured | Measured | Required. Array of boolean; maximum items 256. |
| sourceVerified | Source Verified | Required. Array of boolean; maximum items 256. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| totalInternalVolume | Total Internal Volume | Required. Finite number. |
| supportedVolume | Supported Volume | Required. Finite number. |
| share | Dimensionless reported share using the selected denominator; not a probability estimate. | Required. Finite number. |
| defined | Whether the associated denominator or reporting quantity is defined; inspect before interpreting zero placeholders. | Required. Boolean. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- Flags are assertions and repeated intervals contribute again; no actual flow, mixing or biological adequacy is verified.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use verified system records and qualified aquaculture/agronomic assessment for actual stocking, feeding, plant requirements or operational decisions.
