Subject: How Does a TYPE1 Pump Work in SWMM 5?
A SWMM 5 Type1 pump is called an offline pump but the name comes from SWMM 4 and the Pump is controlled by volume instead of depth or head as in the SWMM 5 TYPE2, TYPE3 and TYPE4 Pumps. The attached example SWMM 5 model has an offline storage node that pumps flow INTO the Offline Storage unit during high flow and FROM the Offline Storage Unit during low flow. The SWMM 5 Real Time Control (RTC) rules determine which of the two pumps operate based on the flow in an upstream link (Figure 1).
