Introduction

The example models have been developed to demonstrate the most common TUFLOW model design features and applications. This dataset is useful for experienced modellers wishing to further develop their skills, or looking for model configuration examples. Although the models are based on the TUFLOW tutorial model dataset, new users are encouraged to familiarise themselves with the basics of TUFLOW through the tutorials page before using this dataset ( TUFLOW Tutorial Models).

Unlike the tutorial models, which progressively increase the level of complexity with each Module, the models below are standalone examples, and can be used as a reference to demonstrates various TUFLOW features. The models have typically been developed from the most basic 2D model examples and do not have step-by-step instructions, as per the tutorial models.

Example Model Data

The model data is available for download from the TUFLOW website.


The download dataset only include model input files to keep the file download to a manageable size. The models can be run using the batch file provided in the "runs" folder (Complete_Model\Tuflow\runs\_run_all.bat). Before using the batch file you will first need to update it using a text editor.

  • Open the batch file in a text editor.
  • reset the file path references to the location of the single and double precision TUFLOW executables on your computer or network (TUFLOW_iSP_w64.exe and TUFLOW_iDP_w64.exe).
  • Save the batch file and close the text editor.
  • Double click on the .bat file in Windows Explorer to initiate the simulations.

Additional information on how to use and update batch files to execute multiple simulations is available here: Run TUFLOW From a Batch-file. The TUFLOW executable isn't included with the model datasets. If you haven't already got a copy, you can download the latest release from the TUFLOW website: http://www.tuflow.com/Tuflow%20Latest%20Release.aspx

Example Models

Below is a complete list of the example models available for download from the TUFLOW website. The models are broken into 11 categories;

  • Basic 2D model: 2D models in metric and imperial units
  • Output options: 2D models with grid, point and region outputs. Time of peak, initial inundation and duration of inundation
  • Boundary Condition Options: 1D and 2D models with various boundary condition types including water level, rainfall, 1D and stage boundaries
  • Topography Updates: Linear and spatial topography updates as well as embankment breaches through water level triggers
  • Loss Options: Various infiltration loss models
  • Scenario/Event Management: Models demonstrate use of scenarios and events for multiple model runs
  • Bridges: Bridge structures modelled in 1D and 2D
  • 1D/2D modelling: Pipe, river and culvert networks linked to 2D domain
  • 1D Operating Structures: Pump and sluice gate operational structures
  • 2D/2D Modelling: Various multiple 2D domain models
  • 2D GPU: 2D GPU modelling with stage-time and stage-discharge boundaries
  • HPC: Various 2D and 1D2D model scenarios

Reference to the Model Name and a Preceding Base Model are provided for comparison purposes. Compare the models against each other to identify the command syntax and input data differences, and hence the updates that are required to activate the feature referred to in the model description.

Recommended Reading

  • It is recommended that the TUFLOW Manual be downloaded.
  • It is also recommended that a sound naming convention for TUFLOW models and associated files be adopted. This is described in the following page: TUFLOW Naming Convention.
  • The following page (TUFLOW file types) describes the different file types and groups of files provided with this tutorial.
  • The use of a modelling log is also beneficial and highly recommended. TUFLOW modelling logs are discussed in this page: TUFLOW Modelling Log.

Requirements

The requirements for these example models are as per the Tutorial modules, and can therefore be run without a TUFLOW license by using the .tcf command Tutorial Model == ON. TUFLOW build 2016-03-AA or later is required to simulate the models. TUFLOW has relatively modest system requirements for small models such as the tutorial model. However, larger and more complex models may have higher hardware requirements - in particular memory (RAM). TUFLOW is available in both 32 and 64 bit versions. For a full list of the Hardware and Software requirements, please refer to the Tutorial home page.

Note: Currently the final 5 models, (EG09 and EG10) cannot be simulated license free as they require access to the Multiple 2D Domains and GPU modules respectively. Model 'EG00_2D_5m_002.tcf' (basic 2D model using US Customary Units) can only be simulated license free using the command Demo Model == ON and TUFLOW build 2016-03-AA or later.
