InThis this moduletutorial, Module 4 of the TUFLOW SWMM tutorial dataset will demonstrate TUFLOW's inbulit event management is introducedfunctionality. This is a powerful functionality running multiple event combinations (e.g. magnitude, duration, temporal patterns, climate change) using a single set of control files rather than creating a new set of control files for every simulation. ThisFor makes the management of the model easierexample, ensures consistency between the simulations and better quality control. Withoutwithout implementing event management, six TCFs and six bc_dbase files arewould have been required to run the simulations associated with this module,. usingUsing event management, onlyexecutes oneall eachthe isevents from a single TCF and bc_dbase neededfile:<br>

This feature of TUFLOW makes the management of the model files easier, ensures consistency between the simulations and improves project quality control by reducing the likelihood of human error. TUFLOW SWMM Tutorial Module 4 builds from the model created in <u>[[TUFLOW_SWMM_Tutorial_M03|TUFLOW SWMM Tutorial Module 3]]</u>. The completed TUFLOW SWMM Module 3 model is provided in the '''''TUFLOW_SWMM_Module_04\TUFLOW''''' folder of the download dataset as the starting point for this tutorial. If you are not already familiar with TUFLOW SWMM linking, we recommend first completing Module 1, 2 and 3 before this tutorial. <br>
Events are set up using a define event block in TUFLOW Event File (TEF) - <font color="blue"><tt>Define Event</tt></font> command terminated by <font color="blue"><tt>End Define</tt></font>. <br>
The TUFLOW control files are:
:*TUFLOW Events File (TEF): A database of TCF and ECF commands for different events.<br>
'''Module 9 builds from the model created in <u>[[Tutorial_M02 | Module 2]]</u>. The completed Module 2 model is provided in the Module_09\TUFLOW folder.''' <br>
