Build 5.1.003 (4/8/2014)
------------------------
Engine Updates:
1. A new property, the Upper Zone Evap. Pattern, was added to
the Aquifer object. It allows one to adjust the aquifer's
upper zone evaporation fraction by month of the year.
2. A bug in writing/reading RDII flows to the new binary RDII
file was fixed.
GUI Updates:
1. A refactoring bug that prevented SWMM from working
correctly for users with non-US Windows regional settings
was fixed.
2. A refactoring bug the prevented the Group Delete feature from
working was fixed.
3. Issues with stay-on-top forms obscuring modal dialog forms,
with the Browser panel disappearing if its width was made too
small and with not being able to browse the Help system when a
modal form had focus were fixed (these unforseen issues were
caused by the switch to Delphi XE2 from Delphi 7).
4. The Aquifer Editor form was updated to accept the new upper
evaporation pattern property.

Build 5.1.002
-----------------------
Engine Updates:
1. A bug that prevented hotstart files with the latest format
from being read was fixed.
2. Only non-ponded surface area is saved for use in the dynamic
wave surcharge algorithm (when water depth is close to the
node's crown elevation).
GUI Updates:
1. Creation of auxilary forms on startup was moved from the
main form's OnActivate event to its OnCreate event, while
creation of the map form was moved tothe OnShow event.
2. The routines for saving and reading the main form's position
and size in the swmm5 .ini file were modified.
3. A memory leak related to copying cells from the grid editor
used in various dialogs was fixed.
-----------------------"Master the dynamics of pump operations in fluid simulations with a one-second timestep 🔍⏱️:
1️⃣ Activation: The pump engages once the Wet Well reaches the predetermined 'Pump On' depth. 2️⃣ Flow Calculation: Leveraging the pump curve, the system calculates the flow based on the differential head across the pump. 3️⃣ Head Gain Adjustment: Post-activation, the head gain begins to decrease due to the elevated flow in the force main and the rising depth at the downstream node. 4️⃣ Stabilization: Shortly after starting, the pump enters a phase of constant flow, stabilized by the steady head gain across the pump. 5️⃣ Initial Surge: Observe a brief spike in flow at the onset of the pump cycle, a result of the rapid shift in pump head gain.
Unlock the nuances of pump behavior with each simulation second, enhancing the precision of your hydraulic models 💦🔄📊."

Innovyze Debuts Integrated Catchment Modeling Sewer Edition
|
|
New InfoWorks ICM SE Delivers Higher Levels of Productivity For Sanitary, Storm and Combined Sewer Modeling and Management
|
|
Broomfield, Colorado, USA, March 4, 2014 — Innovyze, a leading global innovator of business analytics software and technologies for smart wet infrastructure, today announced the release of InfoWorks ICM SE (Sewer Edition). Since its first release in 2010, InfoWorks ICM has rapidly become the solution of choice for integrated river, sewer and overland flow modeling by utilities, municipalities, local authorities and their consultants around the world. InfoWorks ICM SE incorporates all the powerful analysis features and capabilities of InfoWorks ICM for comprehensive sewer collection systems modeling, but without 2D simulation of surface flooding. In response to the specific requests of our vast wastewater user community, the new program gives wastewater utilities an enhanced set of tools and functionalities and an enriched modeling experience for managing and operating sewer networks. The changes reflect the Innovyze commitment to providing its users significant value and competitive advantages and quickly responding to their needs.
InfoWorks ICM SE is a fully-dynamic sewer network modeling solution that uses a fast, accurate and unconditionally stable implicit numerical solution scheme — providing a high degree of confidence in simulation results. It can be effectively used to model any complex sanitary, storm and combined sewer system, offering complete hydrology, hydraulic and water quality simulation and sophisticated real-time control (RTC) modeling capabilities. (As a specialized version of InfoWorks ICM, SE does not model overland flow or 2D flooding.) The software automates many user-intensive operations, helping engineers minimize time spent creating, calibrating and simulating reliable sewer models and analyzing results. InfoWorks CS users will greatly benefit from an improved interface and visualization and reporting tools; additional modeling capabilities (e.g., SWMM5 and CS Horton infiltration, non-prismatic open channels, H2S, Algae, nutrient dynamics); enhanced database and scenario management; multivariable themes and mapping; and stunning graphics. Such advanced capabilities make it easier for users to set up, visualize and manage simulations, and arrive at fast, reliable solutions to support cost-effective drainage design, operation and management. “We continue to listen to our customers’ wants and needs and devote extensive resources to delivering an extended product portfolio that not only recognizes user feedback but protects their investments,” said Paul F. Boulos, Ph.D., BCEEM, NAE, Hon.D.WRE, Dist.D.NE, F.ASCE, President, COO and Chief Technical Officer of Innovyze. “With InfoWorks ICM SE, users of InfoWorks CS can now fully leverage the increased power, flexibility and usability of InfoWorks ICM along with groundbreaking gains in speed, to easily generate optimized solutions as quickly as possible. The release empowers engineers worldwide with new levels of sewer collection system modeling and simulation flexibility.” |
