SMS:CMS-Flow Time Control
From XMS Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
The CMS-Flow Time Control dialog allows the user to specify the starting day and time for the simulation.
Other options include:
- Start Time: The hour at which to begin the model. This will be the first time step listed in any solution files.
- Simulation Duration: The length of the simulation in hours.
- Ramp Duration: The period of time in days at which to allow the model to “build up” or “ramp up” to a legitimate solution. Aids in the convergence of the model.
- Time Step Size: The time increment at which M2D makes internal calculations. Running the CMS-Flow Model Check from the CMS-Flow menu will provide an initial estimation for the maximum time step size that will produce a convergent result.
