| Note: The stability criteria must also be satisfied for a model to run correctly. If this is not the case, the following error appears during runtime: Routing parameters have caused instability in storage routing. Refer to Stability criteria/wiki/spaces/SD43/pages/53543879 for more information. |
This is a simplification of the full momentum equation and assumes that diffusion and dynamic effects are negligible. The method uses index flow in flux, storage and mass balance equations. A weighting factor is used to adjust the bias between inflow and outflow rate, hence allowing for attenuation of flow. The storage routing equation is shown below and some of its terms are represented diagrammatically in Figure 1.
...
Rating curves (Figure 4) are used to describe the physical characteristics of the reach and convert a flow into a level, ie. they produce an output of level. They can be specified in one of two ways:
- Using the Cross Section Editor to specify a physical cross section, and then generating the rating curve; or
- Directly entering the rating curve - the piecewise linear editor allows you to define relationships with respect to water level, discharge rate, reach width and dead storage. You can define multiple rating curves for a reach, each scheduled to commence on a particular date.
...
- Right click Rating Curve and choose Add Rating Curve;
- Today’s date will automatically be entered for Start Date. To change this, click the calendar on the right side (see Working with date-pickers);
- Enter the water level, discharge rate, reach width and dead storage; and
- Enter an appropriate value for Overbank Flow Level.
