General Section

  • Data Visualization
  • Mesh Editing
  • Observation

HYDRO AS-2D performs 2D modeling of bodies of water. The procedure integrated in HYDRO AS-2D is based on the numerical solution of the 2D current equations with finite-volume-discretization. In addition to 2D current simulation, the modules of HYDRO_FT_2D can simulate pollutant and sediment transport as well as heat transport.

SMS supports HYDRO AS-2D through the Generic Model interface offering a simple way to set model parameters, run the model, and visualize the results.

The HYDRO AS-2D model can be added to a paid edition of SMS.

Functionality

Features

HYDRO AS-2D is characterized by:

  • Solves hundreds of thousands of elements very quickly
  • Calculation accuracy guaranteed by extensive lab tests and real-world applications
  • High stability, robustness and exactness for a wide spectrum of hydrodynamic conditions
  • Volumetric accuracy of the tidal wave propagation on complicated topography
  • Solutions showing flow speed, direction, and flood depth
  • The bed changes as a result of sediment erosion and sediment deposition are modeled
  • Fully coupled transport and hydrodynamic solver ensures current changes due to sediment scour/deposition are accurately simulated
  • Simulate transport of up to twelve grain dimensions at the same time
  • Short calculating time for millions of elements
  • Available in English and German and for Windows and Linux

Applications

  • River flooding analysis
  • Heavy rainfall analysis/ urban flash flood modelling
  • Sediment erosion/depositions studies in river channels and floodplains
  • Tidal wave propagation
  • Pollutant dispersion in a waterway

Extensions

HYDRO AS-2D is highly user-optimized and offers the following extensions:

  • LASER_AS-2D: Net-generator based on laser-scan-data for intelligent thinning out and deriving of terrain edges
  • Stream Network Generator: Efficient generatin of 2D meshes for river channels
  • JabPlot: Creating professional profile and longitudinal plots

Using the Model / Practical Notes

It is recommended that HYDRO AS-2D is used with an adequate graphics and co-processor. A list of graphics and co-processors can be found on the Hydrotec website.

Graphical Interface

HYDRO AS-2D uses the Generic Model Graphical Interface.
