Introduction

Open waterways (channels) are most commonly modelled as "S" type channels, the S signifies a sloping channel that can handle steep, super-critical flows. Open channels can either be modeled as an inertial or non-inertial channel, the latter removes the Courant stability condition and is useful for stabilizing very short S channels with high velocities.

Example of an open channel that could be modelled in 1D

Basic Commands

Within the *.ecf the following commands and files are at a minimum required to a model an open channel:

Read GIS Network ==..\model\mi\1d_nwke_xxxxx.MIF ! network layer containing "S" channel alignments
Read GIS Table Links ==..\model\mi\1d_xs_xxxxx.MIF ! corresponding cross-section polylines

The tutorial model here runs through the necessary layers and setup for a 1D open channel within a model.

Typical check files used

The table below highlights some of the commonly used check files when reviewing 1D open channels. The full list of TUFLOW check files can be found here.

Filename prefix / suffix Brief Description
_hydroprop_check.mif
_hydroprop_check_L.shp
Contains the hydraulic properties at the top of the hydraulic properties tables as attributes of the 1D channels. Other information such as the primary Manning’s n is also provided. Very useful for carrying out quality control checks on the 1D channels.
_inverts_check.mif
_inverts_check_P.shp
Contains the inverts of the 1D nodes and at the ends of the 1D channels. Very useful for checking for smooth transitions from one channel to another and with the nodes.
_iwl_check.mif
_iwl_check_P.shp
GIS .mif/.mid or .shp files of the initial water levels at the 1D model nodes.
_nwk_C_check.mif
_nwk_C_check_L.shp
GIS .mif/.mid or .shp files of the final 1D model network. This check layer contains the channels of the 1D domain only. The _nwk_N_check layer contains the nodes.

The layers lines are coloured based on the channel type (available for the .mid/.mif format only).
Any generated pit channels are shown as a small channel flowing from north to south into the pit node. The upstream pit channel node that is generated is also shown. The length of the pit channel is controlled by Pit Channel Offset == command.

_nwk_N_check.mif
_nwk_N_check_P.shp
GIS .mif/.mid or .shp files of the final 1D model network. This check layer contains the nodes of the 1D domain only. The _nwk_C_check layer contains the channels.

The node symbology is displayed as a red circle for nodes connected to two or more channels, a larger magenta circle for nodes connected to one channel and a large yellow square for nodes not connected to a channel (available for the .mid/.mif format only). This is very useful for checking for channel ends or nodes that are not snapped.
The top and bottom elevations of the NA table at nodes is now shown using the Upstream_Invert and Downstream_Invert attributes.

_WLLo_check.mif
_WLLo_check_L.shp
_xWLLo_check.mif
_xWLLo_check_L.shp
GIS layer of all the WLL objects read. The attributes provide information on which nodes that area associated with, etc.

The _WLLo_check layers are written for ESTRY 1D domains, whereas the _xWLLo_check layers are written for external 1D domains, such as Flood Modeller or XP-SWMM.

_WLLp_check.mif
_WLLp_check_P.shp
_xWLLp_check.mif
_xWLLp_check_P.shp
GIS layer of where the points were generated along the WLLs. These points can then be used for Read GIS WLL Points == command.

The _WLLp_check layers are written for ESTRY 1D domains, whereas the _xWLLp_check layers are written for external 1D domains, such as Flood Modeller or XP-SWMM.

_xsl_check.mif
_xsl_check_L.shp
GIS layer containing tabular data as read from 1d_xs input layers. Contains the XS ID and other useful information on the cross-section properties, etc. Refer also to _ta_tables_check.csv.
_x1d_chans_check.mif
_x1d_chans_check_L.shp
GIS layer containing the location of 1D channels from an external 1D domain.
_x1d_nodes_check.mif
_x1d_nodes_check_P.shp
GIS layer containing the location of 1D nodes from an external 1D domain.
