When is Warning 02 Used in the SWMM 5 Engine?

When is Warning 02 Used in the SWMM 5 Engine?

1. If the crown elevation of the highest connecting link is greater than the maximum depth of the node, then
2. The maximum depth of the node is increased to the crown elevation of highest connecting link
3. This is an  internal engine change and is reflected in the Output HGL
4. For example, a 4 foot pipe connected to a node with a maximum depth of 2 feet will be increased to 4 feet
5. The output text file will say what the maximum depth is or 4 feet in this case

Innovyze Releases SWMMLive Generation V5.5, Powering Real-Time Stormwater, Wastewater and Watershed Modeling

Innovyze Press Release

Innovyze Releases SWMMLive Generation V5.5, Powering Real-Time Stormwater, Wastewater and Watershed Modeling
Latest Release Features Comprehensive Exporting and Reporting Tools and Significant Usability Enhancements
Broomfield, Colorado, USA, February 17, 2015 — Innovyze, a leading global innovator of business analytics software and technologies for smart wet infrastructure, today announced the worldwide release of the V5.5 Generation of its SWMMLive for real-time operational forecasting, modeling and management of urban drainage systems. The latest release features significant customer-requested functionality that gives wastewater utilities an unsurpassed tool for identifying flood-vulnerable assets and formulating sound and cost-effective remediation/mitigation strategies.

SWMMLive combines the comprehensive urban drainage modeling capabilities of industry-leading InfoSWMM(and H2OMAP SWMM), with sophisticated real-time operational forecasting, early warning, and emergency management. This powerful risk assessment and real-time decision making tool allows utilities of all sizes to operate and manage their collection systems more efficiently and effectively than ever before. It enables managers and operators to consider the influence of a full range of catchment factors in three key areas: management of flooding and reduction of unregulated discharges; optimization of storage, green alternatives and existing infrastructure, leading to savings on capital works; and optimization of pumps to lower energy costs and reduce CO2 emissions.

SWMMLive can directly import any InfoSWMM or H2OMAP SWMM project, and is designed to work automatically. Once a system is configured, real-time data is continually and automatically harvested and quality checked. This data can be defined by a number of parameters, including observed and forecasted radar rainfall, online water quality measurements, and ancillary structure and pump operation time series. Simulations are run automatically at a user-defined frequency using the full hydrodynamic and advanced technological capabilities of InfoSWMM(and H2OMAP SWMM), including water quality assessment, pollution prediction, urban flooding, green LID and BMP alternatives, and real-time control. Simulation frequency can change in response to user-defined conditions. For example, increased rainfall intensity can trigger a reduction of the interval between simulations.

Warnings or alerts triggered during the forecast period are instantly displayed via the rich SWMMLive user interface, allowing system operators to see at a glance which areas need attention and what actionable options might be taken. Comparison alerts can be used to highlight differences between observed and modeled results, enabling users to refine their models — and creating unprecedented confidence in simulation results.

SWMMLive also allows operators to perform simulations that explore alternative real time control scenarios — such as the impact of switching on a pump earlier than planned — and quickly seeing the effect of these changes on the system. The wide range of capabilities in SWMMLive make it a key tool in the decision making process, enabling operators to take action to avoid system issues, release timely alerts, and quickly deploy response teams if necessary.

V5.5 introduces the ability to automatically export graphs and maps to image files, making it possible to to create Post Event Reports displaying results from automatic simulations within a specified time range for a selection of locations. Post Event Reports allow operators to assess the accuracy of forecasts against the latest observed data, ensuring complete confidence in the simulation run results.

The new version also introduces a range of usability enhancements that make creating and monitoring real-time forecasts easier than ever. They include a new Alert Count window showing the number of instances of each alert, a new Custom Graph window providing effortless graphing for predetermined network objects, user security roles revisions, a self-maintaining Innovyze Live Server run log and additional keyboard shortcuts and grid tooltips within the SWMMLive Configuration ManagerSWMMLive V5.5 even allows simulation runs to be triggered by third party, external tools.

How to Use Trace Upstream, Domain Manager and Facility Manager in InfoSewer to Find the CE

InfoSewer does not have table of node continuity errors only an overall continuity error balance.  If you have a continuity error then you can use the process of divide and conquer to find the location of the continuity error.  Start at the Outlets and using the Trace Upstream command, Domain Manager and Facility Manager take out whole sections of the network until you isolate the section of the network with the continuity error  (Figure 1 and Figure 2).

 Here are the steps you can take:
Step 1.   Use Trace Upstream Network to find the and place in a Domain the Upstream Network (Figure 3).
Step 2.   Once the upstream domain is created use the Domain Manager to add in any extra links without nodes (Figure 4)
Step 3.   Make the Domain Inactive using Facility Manger (Figure 5)
Step 4.    Run the network and check the overall continuity error (Figure 6)
Step 5.   Continue and repeat until you isolate the area that is the main source of the Continuity Error (CE).

Vertical Roughness Differentiation in InfoSWMM for a Link

The Vertical Roughness Threshold allows the user of InfoSWMM or H2OMap SWMM to have a simple differentiation of roughness in a link. The Threshold depth which is entered as a fraction of the total link depth allows the simulation of lower or higher roughness at the bottom of the link compared to the top of the link. The lower or higher roughness is entered as the Vertical Roughness value in the InfoSWMM Attribute Table of DB Table for the link hydraulic data.

1. The Vertical Roughness Threshold is a fraction and the Threshold depth calculated from this fraction will be the Vertical Roughness Threshold Fraction * Maximum depth. If the Maximum depth is 3 meters and the Vertical Roughness Threshold is 0.5 then the dividing depth is 1.5 meter (Figure 1 and Figure 2).
2. If the depth in the link is higher than the Threshold depth it will use the link manning roughness n value. If the depth is in the link during the simulation is less than the Threshold depth it will use the Vertical Roughness n value (Figure 2).
3. For example in Figure 3, I am showing the Base Scenario (Blue line), a Scenario with a larger Vertical Roughness n value (Green Line) and a Scenario with a smaller Vertical Roughness n value (Red Line). The larger the Vertical Roughness n value the larger the simulated depth in the link for the same flow input.

Water is good; it benefits all things and does not compete with them.(Lao-tzu)

I saw this website on LinkedIn and was interested in the use of Chinese and Japanese characters for water.    http://www.flood-risk-bolivia.eu.pn/index.html
“The present research is supported by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Sciences (JSPS). The project began its research activities on November 2014. The logo selected is quite simple but meaningful. It consists on the map of Bolivia and inside the map it is the kanji for the word Shuǐ (Chinese) or Mizu (Japanese) that means water. The kanji looks like a drop water. It was decided to use the symbol of water, as everything relates somehow to water. Water is the most vital element for life, but it can also become the most destructive force.”
