A flow splitter with a nib wall can be modelled in TUFLOW by introducing a 1D weir between the manhole and the relevant outlet pipe. The weir crest elevation should be set equal to the height of the nib wall within the chamber. This setup allows low flows to discharge through one pipe, while higher flows overtop the weir into a secondary outlet, replicating the behaviour of a physical flow splitter.
 
The main outlet pipes are connected through a manhole, which automatically applies appropriate entry and exit losses. For outlets that do not connect further downstream, entry and exit losses should be manually defined in the attributes.
 
Refer to the schematic example below for this configuration.
