Line 3:
There are two types of linking:-
 
* A "X1DH" link where a Flood Modeller 1D water level is being applied at the ESTRY node (i.e. Flood Modeller sends ESTRY a water level and ESTRY sends back a discharge to Flood Modeller).
* A "X1DQ" link where a Flood Modeller inflow/outflow is being applied at the ESTRY node (i.e. Flood Modeller sends ESTRY a discharge and ESTRY sends back a water level).
 
An ESTRY X1DH (the default) would be used for most Flood Modeller ESTRY links where TUFLOW is discharging into Flood Modeller. The discharge will be applied to the Flood Modeller 1D model as a lateral inflow. The Flood Modeller 1D node on the receiving end of an X1DH connection must be a channel unit (eg, River, Interpolate, Replicate or Conduit) and must not be the end node of a reach (ie, distance to next cross section of zero). This is commonly used when representing a pipe network within ESTRY which discharges to an open channel represented in Flood Modeller as per Figure 1.
Line 29:
Generally, an ESTRY timestep will be smaller than the Flood Modeller timestep. In these cases, the total volume is accumulated over all ESTRY timesteps within a Flood Modeller timestep, and applied to the Flood Modeller model as a discharge by dividing the volume by the Flood Modeller timestep.
The mass balance _MB1D.csv file includes four new columns:
 
• X1DH V In: The volume of water in via a X1DH link.
* X1DH V OutIn: The volume of water outin via a X1DH link.
• X1DQ* X1DH V InOut: The volume of water inout via a X1DQX1DH link.
* X1DQ V OutIn: The volume of water outin via a X1DQ link.
• X1DH* X1DQ V InOut: The volume of water inout via a X1DHX1DQ link.
 
Results can also be plotted using the TUFLOW Viewer. In the case of a X1DH link between ESTRY and FLOOD Modeller, results are shown in Figure X.
