This is how you use the batch file in SWMM 5 to make a Report 

Step 1:  You make a bat file - here is a sample file that uses the swmm5.exe program 

swmm5.exe Example1.inp  D:\swmm5.0.021\bob.rpt

Note:   How to Save Selected Nodes and Links in InfoSWMM

 

Step 1:  Decide what Nodes and Links you want to save.

 

 

 

Step 2:  You can read the flow, velocity, depth and capacity from the RPT Text File.

Note:  How to change the Maximum Infiltration in a DB Table of InfoSWMM and H2OMAP SWMM

 

There are a lot of methods in InfoSWMM and H20MAP SWMM to change the infiltration data.  You have the ability to change it for

Note: Steps to take and rules for Cloning Datasets in InfoSWMM and InfoSewer

 

Before cloning an active dataset, the user should switch to the Base Scenario.  This saves the active datasets and allows the user to clone the dataset with all edits.

Subject:  How to Make an Internal Outfall into an External Outfall when you have more than one link connected to an Outfall
Step 1:  Identify the Problem "ERROR 141: Outfall J-561 has more than 1 inlet link or an outlet link." Means you have an

Note:  Each of the RDII UH's has a base time for the convolution of the RDII from each UH.  The Time Base is T + T*K from the Time(T) and Storage (K) values  used in the RTK data.  In this particular case:

Note: Four cross sectional areas are used in a link of SWMM 5. The weighted hydraulic radius (Rwtd) is a function of the Froude Number of the link and the upstream and downstream hydraulic radius.  The Rwtd value is used in the computation of the friction slope Read the rest

Note:  Orifice Critical Depth for Separating Weir Flow from Orifice Flow for Bottom Outlet Orifices

 

The Critical height is the opening where weir flow turns into orifice flow. It equals (Co/Cw)*(Area/Length) where Co is the orifice coeff., Cw is the weir coeff/sqrt(2g), Area is the area of the opening, Read the rest

Note:  There are 7 Link flow classification classes that are used to assign the area of the link to the upstream and downstream nodes of the link.  The classes used during the simulation of the model are shown in the Link Classification Table in the RPT Report File.
