Real-Time Control (RTC) Rule Editor in InfoSWMM and InfoSWMM SA

InfoSWMM and InfoSWMM SA offers an advanced RTC rule that could be used to effectively simulate the operation of pumps and flow regulating structures such as weirs, orifices, and outlets. Unlike Simple Controls, RTC rules allow for the creation … Read the rest

Control Rules in SWMM5 and InfoSWMM

Operational control rules determine how pumps and flow regulating structures (i.e., orifice and weir) in the conveyance system will be adjusted over the course of a simulation. InfoSWMM and InfoSWMM SA has the following three control classes.

2.2 Understanding the 2D Mesh (Zone) in InfoSWMM 2D

The 2D zone, alternatively described as a mesh, consists of a series of contiguous triangles, whose shared boundaries cover the catchment surface. The height of each point on each triangle is derived from a ground model GRID or TIN.

It is … Read the rest
