Caution should be taken when using a "wide" line. The cell size and alignment of the 2d_lfcsh line may result in selecting too many or too few cell faces in the direction of the flow. The FLC input may need to be recalculated to ensure FLC Applied

The following diagrams demonstrate how the input FLC is applied for the four geometry options for 2d_lfcsh and 2d_bg layers: <br>

It is good modelling practice to check the <u>[[Check_Files_2d_lfcsh_uvpt | lfcsh_uvpt_check]]</u> and <u>[[Check Files 2d bg uvpt check | bg_uvpt_check]]</u> files to confirm the number of faces selected and the FLC values assigned. It is also strongly recommended to undertake a sensitivity analysis on the applied form losses in the model to check if it makes any difference to the results and/or double check against other methods (hand calculations, other software, CFD modelling), especially if the bridge is near an area of interest. If calibration data is available, this should be used to guide the form loss value specification.<br>
