Extran Hydraulics Master from #Extran3 and #SWMM4 converted to #SWMM5

This is part of the #Inside_#SWMM5 series of blogs and is intended as a visual aid and code developer for the Storm Water Management Model Reference Manuals on https://www.epa.gov/water-research/storm-water-management-model-swmm  I always think images (and some words) are best at explaining the internal working of code.  I do encourage you to read the wonderfully written Storm Water Management Model Reference Manuals.

The following is a combined #Extran3 and #SWMM4 reference manual models in #SWMM5 format.  Examples 1 through 6 were combined together in one #SWMM5 model.

How Do the TimeOpen and TimeClose Controls Work in #SWMM 5.1.012

This is part of the #Inside_#SWMM5 series of blogs and is intended as a visual aid and code developer for the Storm Water Management Model Reference Manuals on https://www.epa.gov/water-research/storm-water-management-model-swmm  I always think images (and some words) are best at explaining the internal working of code.  I do encourage you to read the wonderfully written Storm Water Management Model Reference Manuals.

The controls we are examining are the TIMEOPEN and TIMECLOSED commands in #SWMM5.  These commands are defined in the SWMM5 help file as

TIMEOPEN is the duration a link has been in an OPEN or ON state or have its SETTING be greater than zero; TIMECLOSED is the duration it has remained in a CLOSED or OFF state or have its SETTING be zero.

Here is an example rule,

RULE COUNT1

IF SIMULATION TIME > 0.0

THEN PUMP PUMP1@82309e-15009e SETTING = 1.0

PRIORITY 1

RULE COUNT2

IF PUMP PUMP1@82309e-15009e TIMEOPEN >= 2

THEN PUMP PUMP1@82309e-15009e SETTING = 0.0

PRIORITY 5

Here are the control actions taken during the simulation

Here is how the Timer for TIMEOPEN and TIMECLOSES are reset based on the Setting, Target Setting and Rules.  Notice the time is reset every 2 hours.

Here is how the Setting and Flow are used during the Simulation – every 2 hours TimeOpen is reset.

How to approximate the Flood polygon created in InfoSWMM RAM by using Arc Toolbox

How to approximate the Flood polygon created in InfoSWMM RAM by using Arc Toolbox and Subcatchment Manager Tools

Step 1 – Run InfoSWMM and use Map Display to show the Maximum HGL. This is just for reference to the later created polygons.

Step 2 – not needed but as a check to Steps 3 to 5.  Use InfoSWMM RAM to show the area flooding based on the Maximum head or HGL.  This is an approximation of the flooding you would show with have with InfoSWMM 2D.  The maximum HGL is intersected with the DEM or TIN and the DEM elevations below the Maximum HGL are shown in Blue.

Step 3 – Create a contour based on the Maximum HGL in the InfoSWMM run.  Use Contour in the InfoSWMM Browser to create the contour.

Step 4 – The created Contour from the Maximum HGL

Step 5 – Use the Polyline to Raster Arc Toolbox command to make a Raster from the Contour

Step 6 – Optionally you an create a Raster using Convert in the InfoSWMM Subcatchment Manger. The tool creates a DEM from a Contour

Step 7 – Use the CutFill tool in Arc Tool box to find the cut and fill sections of your two Rasters.  The Raster created from the Maximum HGL should be 1^st.

Step 8 – The Cut Fill created Raster shows are areas in RED where the RASTER is ABOVE the Maximum HGL and Blue, where the RASTER is Below the Maximum HGL.

How to use a Small INI file with the Batch Program of #SWMM5

A great feature of SWMM5 is the ability to use batch files to call the Console engine of SWMM5 or SWMM5.EXE.  This is used by many students and professionals for Monte Carlo and other analysis.  Here is a sample batch file and Figure 1 shows the screen output.

swmm5.exe Example1.inp Example1.rpt Example1.out
swmm5.exe Example2.inp Example2.rpt Example2.out
swmm5.exe Example3.inp Example3.rpt Example3.out
REM RPT is the text output file   
REM OUT is the binary graphics output file
pause

Figure 1 - Windows DOS Batch File Screen

an issue is that once you run the SWMM5.EXE program you cannot see the graphs in the GUI. However, you can make a small ini file as in this 

here is an example of minimum ini file for example1.inp

[SWMM5]

Version=51011

[Results]

Saved=1

Current=1

if you have this ini file then the graph icons are turned on (for example1.inp in Figure 2) but not for Example2.inp (Figure 3) as it did not have an ini file.

Figure 2 - Using a small INI file turns on the Graphics in the SWMM5 GUI.

Figure 3 - If an INI file is not used then the Graph Icons are not turned on in the SWMM5 GUI.

How to Model and Display Peaking Factors in InfoSWMM

How to Model and Display Peaking Factors in InfoSWMM 

A significant difference between InfoSewer/H2OMap Sewer and InfoSWMM/H2OMap SWMM is how peaking factors are applied to the dry weather flow (DWF) at the nodes.  InfoSewer has unspeakable and peakable flow with the peakable flow equation defined in the peaking tab of the Run Manger (Figure 1).  The peakable flow equation is only used in the Steady State solution of InfoSewer. InfoSWMM only has unspeakable flow and no way to define peakable flow.  This blog shows a way to externally calculate the peakable flow in Excel and apply it as a DWF Scenario DB in InfoSWMM/H2OMap SWMM.  Here is a list of steps you can take to show the peakable load in InfoSWMM/H2OMap SWMM.  Figure 12 contrasts the peakable flow estimate in InfoSWMM compared to the InfoSewer peakable steady state flows.

Step 1.  Enter the DWF Unpeakable flow in the InfoSWMM DWF DB table without a DWF Pattern (Figure 2).  We will run the model with constant inflow to simulate the Steady State solution in InfoSewer.

Step 2.  The DWF can also be entered at the node level of the Attribute Browser. Figure 3 shows the DWF loads at the Nodes using lateral flow as the mapping parameter.

Step 3.  Using Run Manager in InfoSWMM run the model using the constant DWF loads.

Step 4.  Find the Total Flow at Each Node using the Customized Report Manager Tool from the model output. We will use the total flow to calculate the peakable flow at each node (Figure 4).

Step 5.  Using the Customized Report Manager Tool find the total flow at each node (Figure 5) by defining the data source as a junction.

Step 6.  Use only the Junction ID and Total Inflow in the Custom Table (Figure 6).

Step 7.  Click Finish to Generate the Report (Figure 7).

Step 8.  Copy the ID and Output Columns to the Clipboard (Figure 8).

Step 9.  Copy the ID and Output Columns to Excel and calculate the Peakable Flow (Figure 9) using the peaking equation  Flow = 2.4 * Unpeakable Flow ^ 0.84.

Step 10.  Copy the ID and Peakable Flow to another Scenario's DWF DB Table.  We call the two scenarios unspeakable and peakable (Figure 10).

Step 11.  You now have a Peakable and Unpeakable DWF Table and Scenario which you can use to Map the peakable and unspeakable flows (Figure 11).

Step 12.  Flows are now Peakable Flows if Mapped as Lateral Inflow (Figure 12).

Step 13.  Figure 13 shows the peakable flows in InfoSewer. They match the Excel calculation tables and the peakable DB table in InfoSWMM.  The peakable flow in InfoSewer is based on the routed unspeakable flows to the node.

Area of a Manhole in #SWMM5

The default area of a manhole is used if the inverts of the connecting links are all above the invert of the node:

1.     Invert of the node to the Invert of the lowest connecting link, the area of the manhole is 1.2 square meters or whatever the user defines,

2.     If the water surface is between the invert of the lowest connecting link and the soffit of the highest connecting link then the area of the node is ½ of the area of the connecting links

3.     If the water surface of the node is above the soffit of the highest connecting link then the area of the node is zero and the program tries to balance the flow into and out of the node so the total flow is zero

Simple SI Unit Model for SWMM5 LID with 100 mm Rainfall - Part 2

This blog is a companion to the blog post https://swmm5.org/2017/04/17/swmm5-simple-100-mm-rainfall-model-for-lid-modeling-part-1/ in which a 1 Hectare model with 100 mm of rainfall had a simple Bio-Retention Cell with no LID outflows.  In part 2 of this blog series we will add a drain coefficient of 10 mm/hr (Figure 1).  The internal pervious area is 0.375 hectares, the nonLID area is 0.75 hectares and the two impervious area are 0.1875 hectares each. The example uses 100 mm of rainfall or precipitation to make the comparisons easier.  The LID Drainage outflow of 27.93 mm (Figure 2) is 6.98 mm over the whole 1 hectare Subcatchment (Figure 3).

The BMP removal is still 100 percent of the SF1 pollutant generation

Figure 1 A 10 mm/hr Drain Coefficient to the LID

Figure 2  The LID now has Drain outflow of 27.84 mm

Figure 3 The LID Drainage outflow of 27.93 mm (Figure 2) is 6.98 mm over the whole 1 hectare Subcatchment

#SWMM5 Simple 100 mm Rainfall model for #LID modeling - Part 1

Simple SI Unit Model for SWMM5 LID with 100 mm Rainfall.

Reading this blog and using the embedded SWMM 5 example file, you will run a simple SI unit model based on factors of 1 and 10. The LID (Bio-Retention Cell) is designed to have zero outflows, Figure 1, as the storage is set to 1000 mm. The Subcatchment area is 1 hectare, the prevent impervious is ½ hectare divided into ¼ hectare sections with and without depression storage, the pervious area is ½ hectare (Figure 2). The LID Bio-Retention area is ¼ hectare or 25 percent of the Subcatchment. The SWMM5 divides the Subcatchment into nonLID and Lid sections (Figure 3) and the impervious area and pervious areas are automatically reduced by the SWMM5 engine (Figure 6). The internal pervious area is 0.375 hectares, the nonLID area is 0.75 hectares and the two impervious area are 0.1875 hectares each. The example uses 100 mm of rainfall or precipitation to make the comparisons easier.

Figure 1 SWMM 5 Bio-Retention Cell Example with settings based on 10 so that no flow leaves the LID.  The Berm and Storage Height are set to 1000 mm.

Figure 2 Power of 10 SI unit example for Subcatchment and LID in SWMM5.  The Subcatchment area is 1 hectare, the prevent impervious is ½ hectare divided into ¼ hectare sections with and without depression storage, the pervious area is ½ hectare

Figure 3 Four types of Runoff Surfaces in SWMM5 with LID's

Figure 4 Subcatchment Summary in SWMM5 - there is no Runoff and all of the Pervious Flow Infiltrates.  The pervious infiltration is 37.5 mm which is the percentage of the 1 Hectare Subcatchment covered by the pervious area.

Figure 5 LID Summary - no flow out of the LID, only storage.  The LID area has initial and final storage - the final storage is the total inflow + the initial storage. The total inflow is 100 mm of rainfall + 37.5 mm of Impervious Runoff / 0.25 Hectares or 150 mm for a total of 250 mm.

Figure 6 Division of 1 Hectare Subcatchment into LID and NonLID Areas.  The internal pervious area is 0.375 hectares, the nonLID area is 0.75 hectares and the two impervious area are 0.1875 hectares each.
