modeling reservoir

Hi,
I have modeled 4 reservoirs for the purpose of controlling peak flow. The total depth of flow in reservoirs decrease in approximately 24 hours. I expected that after modeling reservoir, lag time happen for the time to peak. But unfortunately the o

Usage of control rules

Hi,

This is about the control rules.

I am trying to simulate a network with the help of control rules.

Total simulation period is 2 hrs and 30 minutes, however, I'm running the simulation part by part. Eg 0 to 15 minutes, 15 to 30 minutes, 30 to 45 minu

Variable for orifice height

Hi,

I want to include a variable to the orifice height of my network and I tried to implement this through the source codes of SWMM 5.0. I am looking a particular function to do this. 

Please look at the following example.

 

Manning´s roughness coefficie

sensitivity to slope

In running some basic long-term continuous simulations I’ve noticed that SWMM output may not be very sensitive to the slope subcatchment parameter.  For instance, I ran two simple continuous SWMM5 models with over 50-years of hourly rainfall data and
