The TUFLOW models developed by BMT WBM were created within a week and ran for various scenarios for all three challenges. The results of some 15 simulations were submitted and can be downloaded as pdf documents from [[www.tuflow.com | www.tuflow.com]]. Models 1 and 3 were 1D/2D linked models, with Model 3 including some scenarios for soil infiltration using the Green-Ampt method. Challenge Model 2 was also simulated using TUFLOW’s GPU solver and TUFLOW FV using a flexible mesh, providing an interesting benchmark between all three 2D solvers. <br>

The models files have beenare provided atwithin www.tuflow.comthe above page links for those users who wish to simulate the models themselves. Detailed instructions for each Challenge model have been provided on individual Wiki pages. An intermediate to advanced user level has been assumed, so if you're just starting out or haven't already completed the tutorial models, please see this <u>[[Tutorial_ModelTutorial_Introduction | tutorialTutorial modelModel Introduction]]</u> page. <br>

Similar to the TUFLOW Tutorial Model, the Challenge models may be simulated without a license by specifying the command <font color="blue"><tt>Demo Model </tt></font><font color="red"><tt>== </tt></font><tt>ON</tt> within the .tcf file.
