The Attribute Browser (AB) provides you with tools to view, modify and alter data pertaining to any one InfoSWMM SA element such as a pipe, junction, valve, pump, tank and/or a reservoir. It provides also a quick means to inspect output data … Read the rest
Building a DWF Pattern
Time Patterns allow external Dry Weather Flow (DWF) to vary in a periodic fashion. They consist of a set of adjustment factors applied as multipliers to a baseline DWF flow rate or pollutant concentration. The different types of time patterns include:
The Import Manager enables the modeler to import element data into InfoSWMM InfoSWMM SA (both graphical details and attribute data). Click on the following links for more information:

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.

2.4 Set 2D Options in InfoSWMM 2D
Step 1 – Set 2D Options
It is very simple to connect the 2D Zone to the 1D underground network and to enable
the 2D simulation.
2.3 Creating The 2D Zone in InfoSWMM 2D
Step 1 – Add ground surface data to the map
Step 2 – Create 2D Simulation Polygons
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
