TUFLOW Simulation Menu
The TUFLOW Simulation menu is accessed by right-clicking on a TUFLOW simulation item (Sim) in the Project Explorer. The following menu commands are available:
- Delete
- Removes the TUFLOW simulation.
- Duplicate
- Creates another copy of the simulation.
- Rename
- Changes the name of the simulation.
- Export TUFLOW files
- SMS will save the TUFLOW input files in the TUFLOW directory for that simulation. If one does not already exist, a prompt will ask to select a location.
- Launch TUFLOW
- Launches TUFLOW using input files that have previously been exported.
- Save Project, Export and Launch TUFLOW
- Saves the project, writes out the TUFLOW input files, and launches TUFLOW.
- 2D Model Control
- Brings up the 2D Model Control dialog where various model parameters are set. See TUFLOW 2D Model Control page.
- 1D Control
- Brings up the Control 1D dialog where various model parameters are set. See Model Parameters page.
- Model Check
- Causes SMS to perform a check for invalid settings that could prevent TUFLOW from running properly. If errors are found, they will be reported in the Model Check dialog with information on how to correct them.
Components Menu
The TUFLOW Components menu is accessed by right-clicking on the TUFLOW Compenents folder in the Project Explorer. The following menu command is available:
- New 2D Geometry Component
- Creates a geometry components. The TUFLOW simulation can contain components. 2D Grids and certain map coverages can be linked to this component.
The component item also has a right-click menu with the following commands:
- Delete
- Removes the component.
- Delete
- Creates a copy of the component with all linked grids and coverages.
- Rename
- Changes the name of the component.
- Add External Files
- Launches a browser to add external files to the component.
- Grid Options
- Brings up the TUFLOW Grid Options dialog.
Material Sets Menu
The TUFLOW Material Set menu is accessed by right-clicking on the TUFLOW Material Set folder in the Project Explorer. The following menu command is available:
- New Material Set
- Creates a new material set. The TUFLOW simulation can contain multiple material sets.
The material set item also has a right-click menu with the following commands:
- Rename
- Changes the name of the material set.
- Properties
- Brings up the TUFLOW Material Properties dialog.
- Delete
- Removes the material set.
- Export
- Saves the material set as a TUFLOW Materials File (*.tmf).
TUFLOW Menu Bar Commands
The following commands are available in the TUFLOW menu in the menu bar when the Cartesian Grid Module is enabled and a cell or cells are selected in a TUFLOW grid.
- Cell Attributes
- Enabled when one or more cells on a TUFLOW grid are selected. The attributes that can be set using this command are the cell code and the option to override the global initial water level (set in the 2D Model Control). The cell code options are:
- active cell: cell is part of calculations and the results grid domain; Cell Code = 1
- inactive cell – in mesh; cell is not part of the calculations, but is a part of the results grid domain, Cell Code = -1; because comparing two simulations in SMS requires the meshes have the same domain, this option is primarily used to keep the domain of two models the same for comparison while taking into account differences (e.g. areas of a floodplain that are raised to prevent flooding and are thus no longer included in the computation)
- inactive cell – not in mesh: cell is entirely removed from the computation and results, Cell code = 0
For SMS versions 11.1 and earlier the selected cells will only be used if Specify cell by cell is selected in Cell codes section of the TUFLOW Grid Options dialog.
- Assign Material Type
- This command is enabled when one or more cells on a TUFLOW grid are selected. The command will open the Materials Data dialog. The Materials Data dialog will allow selecting a material to assign to a cell. The material set for the cell will only be used if Specify cell by cell is selected in the Materials section of the TUFLOW Grid Options dialog.
