Linking Matlab with SWMM5

Hi, I am currently trying to use Matlab to create a set of random values and inputting these random values into SWMM 5 to vary the different parameters (e.g. decay constant) so I will get a range of results. Has anyone done it before? Thanks!See More

SWMM Interface Accuracy - Simple Glitch??

  • Rating: No Rating
When rainfall data recorded at the time it falls (see below for example), rather than at a set timestep is entered into my model, there appears to be an error within the precipitation table and precipitation timeseries (see attachment for example). The reporting timestep is set at 1 hour, and the raingauge time interval is set at 1 minute.

Site Yr Mth Day Time Rain (mm)
540444 2009 02 13 2 27 1
540444 2009 02 13 2 36 1
540444 2009 02 13 2 39 1
540444 2009 02 13 2 45 1
540444 2009 02 13 2 55 1
540444 2009 02 13 3 01 1


SWMM however still seems to produce accurate flow volumes through conduits and produces hydrographs as would be expected with the rainfall data entered. Is this simply a glitch in the reporting interface, and can SWMM therefore accurately use precipitation data in this format??
