SWMM 4 DWF File

Introduction

 

A version of the SWMM 4 DWF input data is read by SWMM 5 if the keyword

#K1_K3_FILE_DATE

is found in the Titles/Notes Category.  The file can be copied from the SWMM 4 input data file and placed in a separate file.  

The name and location of the DWF data file is found by using the Data command:

Data-->Options-->Interface Files

and then selecting the ADD button and picking INFLOWS  from the pull down menu.  The program will use the iface.c routines in the SWMM 5 C code but read the DWF file using the SWMM 4 data file format.

The SWMM 5 output text file will list the DWF File Summary as a verification of the DWF read during the simulation.  The next Table shows a snippet of one output file.

You should still adjust the width individually for each subcatchment but compare the peak flows for the combined flows to your monitored data. Unless you want to model S1, S2 and S3 together then you are best off estimating the width for each subcat…

Thank you for your help. However, the flow measurement was only taken at the outlet of the whole catchment (Out 1). if i want to calibrate the runoff quantity, how can i obtain the width of the whole catchment? Am i combine the total width of subcat…

Originally, when SWMM was developed the width parameter was the collection length of the subcatchment. For example, it would be the gutter length on a street going to an inlet. In your case one easy way to estimate the Width for the subcatchment goi…
