I am modeling the flow of visitors during a working day in a museum.
The main problem is that I don't know how to model in Arena Rockwell the fact that all entities must clear the queue at the end of the simulation, because obviously after the closing time visitors cannot remain inside the museum, but they must absolutely leave.
Some advice?
Go to, Run -> Setup -> Replication Parameters-> Terminating condition and in terminating condition define "NQ(queue) == 0".
You can add more conditions as per your model requirement.
Define a variable named The Door. Set initial value as quite big number then change that variables value with a submodel and set it up to 0 as time goes by.
Write the variable into the crate (Max batches) then put a decide module or branch block after the crate.Control the TNOW and if TNOW>Value directly dispose.
Hi,
can you give the arriving visitors a random time they stay, random from 0 to X, but use proper function to limit the random to be maximum of time left people can stay inside the museum.
Also in realistic case, the museums usually stop selling tickets to enter the museum 60 minutes, 45 minutes or 30 minutes before the closing time or something similar.
