What's New in this Version of MUSIC
There have been several functional and visual changes to MUSIC version 6.0. The largest is the introduction of MUSIC-link, which streamlines the process of assessing the compliance of water sensitive designs submitted by the development sector against guidelines from a specific assessing authority. Other significant changes are summarised below:
Version 6.2 (Beta Build
...
2)
- Include Zoning/Surface type categories within the Urban source node that offers “split catchment modeling approach”. See: Editing Source Node Properties
- New Results Manager and charting tool is now available. See: /wiki/spaces/SD41/pages/25822777
- Different chart types eg. Line, Exceedance and Cumulative.
- Different statistics and data filtering options
- Direct graphing of flux files that allow
Time series results comparison of multiple scenario (e.g. pre and post)
Time series soil moisture in Bioretention node
Inundation frequency analysis for Wetland (and other storage node)
Calculation No of wet/dry/runoff days
Calculation Stream Erosion Index
Calculation of Volumatic Runoff Coefficient
- We have also modified a number of default values

- MUSIC-link
- The ability to import time-series flow files on source nodes;
- The ability to specify an initial volume for all storage nodes. Prior to this addition, the assumption was that the storage was full at the beginning of the model run;
- The ability to include a maximum draw down limit for all storage nodes with stormwater harvesting options;
- The ability to estimate the surface area for a sedimentation basin, and the inlet volume for wetland nodes;
- The ability to add multiple rainwater tanks (with the same properties) in a model;
- The inclusion of flow-based capture efficiency for the Gross Pollutant Trap and Generic node, allowing for improved handling of pollutants;
- Improvements in the re-use functionality for all treatment nodes with storage;
- Additional properties in the Vegetated Swale node, including Swale Capacity, providing a more clear indication of the results of changing parameters;
- The inclusion of a time-step timestamp in flux files, along with other file format changes to improve usage. Additionally, these files are now saved in the .csv format by default;
- Enhancements in command line functionality; and
- Several bug fixes, including zooming issues and font displays on some computers.
Version 5.1 (Build 16)
MUSIC Version 5.1 includes a number of significant new features and enhancements, which are summarised below. Users are referred to the specified chapter below for further information:
- Fix incorporated to ensure "Load" Y-axis label is always correctly updated when "Load" radio button is selected in Advanced Charting window; and
- Fix incorporated to ensure that correct project window is selected/highlighted when trying to re-open a currently open project.
