This tutorial, Module 4 of the TUFLOW SWMM tutorial dataset will demonstrate TUFLOW's in-bulit event management functionality. This powerful functionality runs 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. For example, without implementing event management, sixa TCFsproject andrequiring bc_dbasesimulation files would have been required to runof the simulations associated with this module. Usingfollowing event management,combinations allwould therequire events are executed from a single144 TCF and bc_dbase filefiles:<br>
* 6 x Event Magnitude (AEP): 01p, 02p, 05p, 10p, 20p, 50p
[[File:M09 EventManagement 01a.png]]<br>
* 8 x Event Duration (hour): 1h, 2h, 3h, 6h, 9h, 12h, 18h, 24h
<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>
* 3 x Climate Change Horizon: current climate, 2050, 2100
Using predefined naming conventions, with TUFLOW's event management functionality, all the events can be executed from a single TCF and bc_dbase file! 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 associated with incorrect file referencing. <br>
