TUFLOW 1D Flood Modeller Connectivity: Difference between revisions

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 (iei.e., 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.

A connector "X" channel type can be used to connect the end of the linked ESTRY channel to the ESTRY node snapped to the Flood Modeller node if the end of the ESTRY channel and the snapped Flood Modeller /ESTRY nodes are not in the same location. In this case it is important that the X-connector is drawn from the ESTRY channel (iei.e., the first vertex on the polyline) to the ESTRY node which is snapped to the Flood Modeller node (see Figure 5). The Flood Modeller node label in the 1d_x1d Flood Modeller layer should match that within the Flood Modeller network.
