This TUFLOW licence free tutorial model is aimed at new users, stepping through the process of building and running a model. To begin, watch the following video:
:*<u>[https://vimeo.com/505584298/2c91bd5f48 What Is TUFLOW?]</u>
<br>
TUFLOW has supported 1D/2D dynamic coupling since its initial 2D solver development in 1989. Traditionally, 1D (1 Dimensional) linking and associated modelling has been applied using TUFLOW's 1D solver, ESTRY. As demonstrated in:
:*<u>[[Tutorial_M11Tutorial_M03 | Module 113]]</u> - 1D Open ChannelCulverts
:*<u>[[Tutorial_M05 | Module 5]]</u> - Integrated Urban Drainage
:*<u>[[Tutorial_M10Tutorial_M11 | Module 1011]]</u> - Dam1D BreakOpen Channel<br>
New in 2023, TUFLOW's 1D linking and solver options have been expanded to support EPA Storm Water Management Model (SWMM). As such, 1D pipe networks or 1D open channels can now be modeled using either the ESTRY, EPA SWMM, or a combination of the 1D solvers.
 
EPA SWMM is a widely used software program for simulating urban and non-urban watersheds' hydrologic and hydraulic behavior. Developed in the early 1970s by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the software has since undergone numerous updates and enhancements to become one of the most used 1D stormwater runoff and water quality analysis tools globally, particularly in North America.
 
The primary uses of EPA SWMM include designing and evaluating stormwater management practices, planning, and assessing low-impact development techniques, and developing models for floodplain mapping and emergency response planning. The software allows users to simulate a wide range of storm events and analyze the impact of a range of factors, such as land use changes, climate variability, and water quality control measures, on the performance of stormwater management systems. For more details about EPA SWMM please visit: <u>[https://www.epa.gov/water-research/storm-water-management-model-swmm</font> Storm Water Management Model]</u><br>
 
The following tutorial models are aimed at new and experienced users, stepping through the process of building and running TUFLOW and SWMM together. The main objective of the TUFLOW – SWMM model is to demonstrate the ability of TUFLOW to link to SWMM external 1D scheme and the various methods available in which to create this link.
