| Climatology |
The Climatology object in EPA SWMM describes the following climate-related variables used for computing runoff and snowmelt:
| · | Temperature |
| · | Evaporation |
| · | Wind Speed |
| · | Snowmelt |
| · | Areal |
| Aquifers |
Aquifers are sub-surface groundwater zones used to model the vertical movement of water infiltrating from the subcatchments that lie above them. They also permit the infiltration of groundwater into …
| Non-visual Objects |
In addition to physical objects that can be displayed visually on a map, SWMM utilizes several classes of non-visual data objects to describe additional characteristics and processes …
| Links |
Links are the conveyance components of a drainage system and always lie between a pair of nodes. Types of links include:
| · | Conduits |
| · | Pumps |
| · | Regulators |
| Conduits |
Conduits…
| Nodes |
Nodes are points of a conveyance system that connect conveyance links together. There are several different categories of nodes that can be employed:
| · | Junctions |
| · | Outfalls |
| · | Flow |
| Water Quality Modeling Features |
In addition to modeling the generation and transport of runoff flows, SWMM can also estimate the production of pollutant loads associated with this runoff. The …
| Main Menu |
The Main Menu located across the top of the SWMM main window contains a collection of menus used for working with the program. These include:
| · |
| Hydrologic Modeling Features |
SWMM accounts for various hydrologic processes that produce runoff from urban areas. These include:
| · | time-varying rainfall |
| · | evaporation of standing surface water |
| · | snow accumulation and |
| Files Used by SWMM |
This section describes the various files that SWMM can utilize. They include:
| · | Project File |
| · | Report and Output Files |
| · | Rainfall Files |
| · | Climate File |

The LID Control Editor is used to define a low impact development control that can be deployed throughout a study area to store, infiltrate, and evaporate Subcatchment …
| Project File |
A SWMM Project File is a plain text file that contains all of the data used to describe a study area and the options used to analyze it. …
| Printing and Copying |
This section describes how to print, copy to the Windows clipboard, or copy to file the contents of the currently active window in the SWMM workspace. This …
| Control Rules |
Control Rules determine how pumps and regulators in the conveyance system will be adjusted over the course of a simulation. The use of control rules is explained in …
| Troubleshooting Results |
When a run ends prematurely, the Run Status dialog will indicate that the run was unsuccessful and direct the user to the Status Report for …

How to Make Break Nodes in #INFOSWMM
and #InfoSWMM SA
You would add a break node to break up long force mains so that the pipe(s) react faster to the pump flows.
This example shows the importance of a treatment train, the percent imperious draining to the LID’s on a Subcatchment, the importance of optimizing for the …
In Tutorial 1 we will use the Siting Manager to Site Green Roof LID Types for later Optimization and Export to the …
