InfoSWMM SA SWMMLive Manager
- Export Model to SWMMLive - Exports the active InfoSWMM SA model for SWMMLive (InfoSWMM SA) to create a baseline model. All essential information about the active InfoSWMM SA model is exported into the given inp file. If current InfoSWMM SA model contains scenario data, this option can be used in conjunction with selected scenarios to export scenario-based models with overriding operational scenario data. All scenario-based model inp files will be exported to their respective scenario sub-folders under the baseline model path.
- Extend Scenario Data to SWMMLive - Exports additional InfoSWMM SA scenario models based on a provided SWMMLive baseline model. The operational data from the selected scenarios will be merged into the given SWMMLive reference model to form different scenario models, to be used in SWMMLive. All scenario-based model inp files will be exported to their respective sub-folders under the given baseline model path.
- Diagnose SWMMLive Model - Diagnoses a given SWMMLive model using the full utilities available from InfoSWMM SA. The given SWMMLive model is imported into InfoSWMM SA for any diagnosis analysis in InfoSWMM SA.

How can there be more flow in a pipe than its full capacity? #SWMM5 and #InfoSWMM - Emoji View
🌊🌀 Unraveling the Pipe Capacity Enigmas of #SWMM5, ICM InfoWorks & ICM SWMM 🚀🌐
📌 Spotlight on Innovyze: Our enlightening journey today seamlessly blends knowledge from the Innovyze blog, tailored especially for the champions of #SWMM5, ICM InfoWorks, and ICM SWMM! 🔍🔗 Innovyze Blog Post
🤔💡 Puzzling Pipe Phenomenon: Ever had those perplexing moments 🙆♂️ when, within #SWMM5 or ICM platforms, a surcharged pipe's maximum simulation flow exceeds its full capacity? Sounds baffling, right? How does more water flow than the pipe's capacity? 🌊🔍
📊 Deciphering Qfull: In #SWMM5 and its ICM counterparts, Qfull (from the link input summary table) is sourced from the revered Manning's equation 📜. While this equation is foundational, it's a tad simpler than the intricate St Venant equations 🧮 harnessed by the engines of SWMM5, ICM InfoWorks, and ICM SWMM for model outputs. This leads to minor variances between Qfull (dictated by slope) and the actual flow discharge as determined by the 1D St Venant Equations. Crucial insight: Qfull serves as a handy reference for us, the users 🧑💻, and isn't the engine's yardstick for determining pipe surcharge. 🖥️🔗
🧐 Manning's Equation Unveiled: Manning's equation paints a picture of a pipe that stretches limitlessly 🌌. Resultantly, it's common for a pipe to ferry more water than its nominal capacity sans surcharge. Want a litmus test? 🕵️♂️ Extend your pipe or stick to a constant max flow, and voilà, brace yourself for the surcharge spectacle! 🌊🎢
📏✨ The Influence of Length: Pipe length isn't just a number; it's a game-changer! 🚀 A nimble 10-meter pipe might effortlessly channel a flow that its 100-meter sibling grapples with, even if they mirror each other in gradient, roughness, and other traits. It all boils down to friction loss, which magnifies with length! 📈🔥
🎉🎈 Golden Nuggets: As stewards of water 💧 and aficionados of #SWMM5, ICM InfoWorks, and ICM SWMM, it's pivotal to fathom that every modeling marvel, be it SWMM or ICM, amalgamates both time-tested wisdom and sophisticated computations. At times, they might seem at odds, but a deeper dive (literally!) can illuminate and elevate our comprehension! 🌟📚🌍
Stay inquisitive, embrace experimentation, and let's champion the cause of seamless water flow! 🌍🌊🤓🎉🥳🌱🌟🎈📊🌈🚀🌐🔍🔗🌀📜🧮🖥️🧑💻🙆♂️🕵️♂️🎢🚀📏🔥🎊📚🌟🎉🌍🌊🤓🎈🎉🎊🌱🌟🎈📊🌈🚀🌐🔍🔗🌀📜🧮🖥️🧑💻🙆♂️🕵️♂️🎢🚀📏🔥🎊📚🌟🎉🌍🌊🤓🎈🎉🎊🌱🌟🎈📊🌈🚀🌐🔍🔗🌀📜🧮🖥️🧑💻🙆♂️🕵️♂️🎢🚀📏🔥🎊📚🌟🎉🌍🌊🤓🎈🎉🎊🌱🌟🎈📊🌈🚀🌐🔍🔗🌀📜🧮🖥️🧑💻🙆♂️🕵️♂️🎢🚀📏🔥🎊📚🌟🎉🌍🌊🤓🎈🎉🎊🌱🌟🎈📊🌈🚀🌐🔍🔗🌀📜🧮🖥️🧑💻🙆♂️🕵️♂️🎢🚀📏🔥🎊📚🌟🎉🌍🌊🤓🎈🎉🎊🌱🌟🎈📊🌈🚀🌐🔍🔗🌀📜🧮🖥️🧑💻🙆♂️🕵️♂️🎢🚀📏🔥🎊📚🌟🎉🌍🌊🤓🎈🎉🎊🌱🌟🎈📊🌈🚀🌐🔍🔗🌀📜🧮🖥️🧑💻🙆♂️🕵️♂️🎢🚀📏🔥🎊📚🌟🎉🌍🌊🤓🎈🎉🎊🌱🌟🎈📊🌈🚀🌐🔍🔗🌀📜🧮🖥️🧑💻🙆♂️
