Subject: SWMM 5, H2OMap SWMM and InfoSWMM Time Step Guide
If you use a variable time step in SWMM 5
The Time Step Guide in seconds is Link Length / [Velocity + sqrt(g*Maximum Depth)] with the assumption that the velocity at maximum depth is about the value of the wave celerity for closed links or sqrt(g*Maximum Depth). Normally (unless pumps are involved) the average time step used during the simulation is a good gauge of the time to use for the simulation. For example, in this model run the time step used is 13 seconds which is about the conduit lengthening time step of 20 seconds * adjustment factor of 0.75
