The objective of the Flood Modeller - TUFLOW modules is to demonstrate how TUFLOW links to
These modules were developed by BMT in collaboration with Jacobs. Comments, requests and feedback can be sent to [mailto:support@tuflow.com support@tuflow.com].
=Requirements and Downloads=
Both TUFLOW and Flood Modeller have modest system requirements for small models such as those used in these modules. Larger and more complex models, however, may require higher hardware specifications, particularly memory (RAM)
TUFLOW models typically require access to a GIS package, a text editor, Microsoft Excel and a results viewer to build, review and visualise a model. A list of compatible packages is available on the TUFLOW Wiki. Flood Modeller can also be used as a graphical user interface for creating and editing GIS layers in a TUFLOW model, as well as for visualising results.

|'''Flood Modeller'''|| Flood Modeller (previously known as ISIS) is a commercial flood modelling package developed by Jacobs for simulating depth-averaged one and two dimensional free surface flows. It is primarily used for the simulation of river channels and is widely used within the UK and Ireland. This tutorial model will only leverage Flood Modeller’s 1D Solver. <br>
TUFLOW 1D and 2D domains can be dynamically linked to the 1D domain of Flood Modeller
Unlike TUFLOW Flood Modeller has a standalone Graphical User Interface which can be used to build networks, run models, and visualise results.
It is recommended that TUFLOW 2020-10-AD or later is used in conjunction with Flood Modeller Version 5 or later. [https://docs.tuflow.com/classic-hpc/manual/2025.2/OneD2DLinkingFM-2.html#fig:fig-FMTUFLOWVersionCompatability Figure 10.
For Flood Modeller Version 5 or later a Standard, Professional, or Unlimited Edition of Flood Modeller Pro is required to open and run the tutorial model.

*Open other files from the active control file; and
*Launch a TUFLOW simulation.
TUFLOW colour coding can be enabled using syntax highlighting.

The aim of this tutorial is to demonstrate the steps undertaken to build, review and visualise the results of a linked Flood Modeller – TUFLOW model. It assumes that the user has a good understanding of both the 1D component of Flood Modeller and the 1D and 2D components of TUFLOW. The following resources may be of use:

The tutorial is presented over a series of modules, with each module offering the opportunity to run the model and review the results. Each of the modules builds upon the previous iteration with models developed in the previous module made available.
New users are advised to undertake the modules in sequence, whilst more experienced users can skip to modules containing specific features of interest. Results and check files are not included to keep the size of the download file manageable, but can be generated through the running of the simulations. The folder should be placed in a location with write permissions. The first tutorial module introduces the user to the linking of a TUFLOW 2D domain to a 1D Flood Modeller model. From this tutorial you will learn how to link an existing Flood Modeller 1D model to a TUFLOW 2D domain. This tutorial is ideal for those starting to learn how to link Flood Modeller and TUFLOW.

The second tutorial demonstrates the linking of an ESTRY pipe network to an existing Flood Modeller – TUFLOW linked model. From this tutorial you will learn how to add a 1D pipe network and connect it to the representation of the watercourse created in Flood Modeller and link it to the TUFLOW representation of the floodplain created as part of the first tutorial. The second tutorial is ideal for those who would like to learn more about the interaction of TUFLOW with Flood Modeller including the simulation of fully integrated drainage systems.
