=Introduction=
This TUFLOW licence free tutorial model is aimed at new users, stepping through the process of building and running a model.
This version of the tutorials is an archived dataset. It focuses on TUFLOW Classic. The current tutorials focus on teaching TUFLOW HPC, and have been created using a new format with embed videos throughout to help new users learn the TUFLOW modelling steps. To access the current version see <u>[[Tutorial Introduction|Tutorial Introduction]]</u> .
=Requirements=
Line 12 ⟶ 14:
===TUFLOW===
TUFLOW can be obtained from the downloads section of the <u>[https://www.tuflow.com/Downloads.aspx TUFLOW website]</u>. It is recommended that you use the latest release version of TUFLOW.This tutorial model does not require a TUFLOW licence in order to be simulated, and no additional drivers should be required.<br>
===GIS Software===
Line 29:
<li>'''Surface-water Modelling Software (SMS)'''</li>
This tutorial was developed with SMS 11.0. Many of the tutorial tasks (such as editing/creating input files) can be completed through the SMS front-end interface. Tasks to be completed differently when using SMS are noted in the appropriate SMS sections. Earlier versions supporting the TUFLOW module and later versions of SMS should be generally compatible with tutorial tasks.<br>
SMS is available from <u>[
<li>'''WaterRIDE FLOOD Manager'''</li>
WaterRIDE FLOOD Manager is available from <u>[https://waterride.net/ www.waterride.net]</u>. WaterRIDE FLOOD Manager requires a licence.

<li>'''NotePad ++'''</li>
NotePad++ is a free text editor. It is available from <u>[
TUFLOW runfile colour coding can be enabled using the '''Notepad++ Syntax File''' on the <u>[https://www.tuflow.com/Tuflow%20Utilities.aspx TUFLOW downloads]]</u> page. For instructions on configure Notepad++ for TUFLOW modelling, please see the [[NotepadPlusPlus_Tips |Notepad++ tips page on the wiki]].
<li>'''UltraEdit'''</li>
UltraEdit is recommended and can be downloaded for a trial period from <u>[
See also <u>[[UltraEdit_Tips | UltraEdit Tips]]</u>.
<li>'''TextPad'''</li>
TextPad is another commercial text editor and may be downloaded from [
Please see this page for details on setting up colour coding: <u>[[TextPad_Tips]]</u>.

=Module Data=
In order to build the models some data is required. This includes a digital elevation model (DEM) and aerial photography. The required background model data for the tutorial model is available for download
* <u>[https://www.tuflow.com/Download/TUFLOW/Tutorial_Model/Tutorial_Data_QGIS.zip QGIS Data Download]</u>.
* <u>[https://www.tuflow.com/Download/TUFLOW/Tutorial_Model/Tutorial_Data_MapInfo.zip MapInfo Data Download]</u>.
* <u>[https://www.tuflow.com/Download/TUFLOW/Tutorial_Model/Tutorial_Data_ArcGIS.zip ArcMap Data Download]</u>.
* <u>[https://www.tuflow.com/Download/TUFLOW/Tutorial_Model/Tutorial_Data_SMS.zip SMS Data Download]</u>.
The download package also contains a working version of the tutorial model for you to refer to. The folder only contains the input files to keep the size of the download file manageable.<br>
If you wish to run all of the final models for each module you can use the batch file under Complete_Model\Tuflow\runs\_run_all.bat. Before using the batch file you will firstly need to edit the file in a text editor and change the path to the executable ('''TUFLOW_iSP_w64.exe'''), save then double click on the .bat file in Windows Explorer to initiate the simulations.<br>
=Recommended Reading=
Whilst the online tutorial is designed to cover as much material as possible, it is recommended that
It is also recommended that a sound naming convention for TUFLOW models and associated files be adopted. This is described in the following page: <u>[[Naming_Convention | TUFLOW Naming Convention]]</u>.<br>
The use of a modelling log is also beneficial and highly recommended. TUFLOW modelling logs are discussed in this page: <u>[[TUFLOW_Modelling_Log | TUFLOW Modelling Log]]</u>.<br>
Line 70 ⟶ 73:
==Module 1: 2D only model==
The first tutorial module introduces the user the TUFLOW software, file types and model inputs. In this module a fully two-dimensional model (no 1D) is built. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 2: Embedding 1D culverts==
The second module introduces three 1D culverts through the road embankments. These culverts are dynamically linked to the 2D model. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 3: Basic 2D topography modification (breaklines)==
In the third module survey data is imported from text file data. These inputs are added to TUFLOW model as breaklines to ensure that the top of the road and the creek centre line are represented in the 5m TUFLOW model. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 4: 1D Open Channel and 2D floodplain==
1D open channel is added to resolve the in-bank areas, the 1D model is dynamically linked to the 2D which is used to model the floodplain areas. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 5: Flood Impact Assessment==
A simple flood impact assessment is undertaken, a proposed development is added to the model and the peak water level for the existing and developed case scenarios are compared. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 6 Modelling Bridges==
This module introduces the user to both 1D and 2D bridges. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 7: Urban Drainage Modelling==
The use of TUFLOW's powerful 1d/2d underground pipe network linking is explored. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 8: Direct Rainfall==
This module introduces direct rainfall modelling and includes use of new techniques such as the use of depth varying roughness. It includes guidance on the review and presentation of results when using rainfall on grid approaches. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 9: Multiple Domain 2D-2D Model==
This tutorial module uses two different 2D domains of varying cell resolution dynamically linked to one another. A 5m cell resolution is used in the upper portion of the study area. A 2.5m cell resolution is adopted in the downstream area. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 10: Managing Multiple Scenarios, Events and Variable==
Line 100 ⟶ 103:
* It is the most efficient way to execute a project, reducing the number of man hours required to create models.
* It has substantial quality control advantages. The modelling framework significantly reduces the number of TUFLOW input files required during a project. In doing so, it typically means less chance of accidental user error when input files are created. Particularly if the file is a slight alteration from another (for example, to reflect changes in inputs associated with a modelling a different event magnitude, duration or temporal pattern).<br>
This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 11: Dam Break Modelling==
This tutorial module uses variable Z shape to model a dam break. This module can be found <u>[[
==Module 14: Pump Modelling in 2D==
This module focuses on adding a pump to the tutorial model to simulate pumping of water from one location in the model to another. This module can be found <u>[[
