SWMM 3, 4 to 5 Converter 1 Reply

SWMM 3, 4 to 5 ConverterSWMM 3,4 to 5 Converter InterfaceThe SWMM 3 and SWMM 4 converter can convert up to two files at one time to SWMM 5. Typically you would convert a Runoff and Transport file to SWMM 5 or a Runoff and Extran File to SWMM 5. If you have a combination of a SWMM 4 Runoff, Transport and Extran network then you will have to convert it in pieces and copy and past the two data sets together to make one SWMM 5 data set.The x,y coordinate file is only necessary if you do not have existing x, y coordinates on the D1 line of the SWMM 4 Extran input data set.You can use the command File=>Define Ini File to define the location of the ini file. The ini file will save your conversion project input data files and directories.Another example of the text file is :Node X Coord Y Coord30017 455373 218549430015 456311 218516730010 457590 218465230007 457754 218470730005 458155 218468830003 458335 218468130001 458927 218449830000 459106 2184486You can use the command File=>Define…Continue

Visual SWMM to SWMM 5 Help 1 Reply

You must make a few text editing changes to get a good SWMM 5 file from your Visual SWMM Runoff data sets.Step 1: Get rid of the leading 0.000000 on your H1 line. I am chagrined that I can't remember what the 0.0000 are for in Visual SWMM. You do not need it for SWMM 4 and definitely do not need it for SWMM 5.H1 0.000000 1, '7#1', '7', 0.0, 350., 142.8055, 12.8, 0.04, 0.04, 0.20, 2., 5., 50., 10., 0.00115, 0,H1 0.000000 1, '7#2', '7', 0.0, 260., 88.4516, 24., 0.048, 0.04, 0.20, 2., 5., 50., 10., 0.00115, 0,H1 0.000000 1, '6#1', '6', 0.0, 155., 33.4478, 3.4, 0.068, 0.04, 0.20, 2., 5., 50., 10., 0.00115, 0,H1 1, '7#1', '7', 0.0, 350., 142.8055, 12.8, 0.04, 0.04, 0.20, 2., 5., 50., 10., 0.00115, 0,H1 1, '7#2', '7', 0.0, 260., 88.4516, 24., 0.048, 0.04, 0.20, 2., 5., 50., 10., 0.00115, 0,H1 1, '6#1', '6', 0.0, 155., 33.4478, 3.4, 0.068, 0.04, 0.20, 2., 5., 50., 10., 0.00115, 0,Step 2: Get the two needed converters from this website:…Continue
