Testbed water module

This page provides an overview and explanation about the Testbed water module project, available for all users.

About the project

The project Testbed water module is available for all users and can be found in the main menu under Edit projects. This project does not count for your license. In the testbed project, several components of the Water Module are visible. It can serve as a working demo to further explore the details of the available components, the models and formula's behind these components and configurable parameters of these components.

Contents

The testbed demonstrates the following components of the Water Module:

1. Flooding related components
2. Rainfall related components
3. Hydraulic structures
4. Groundwater related components

Flooding related components

For the testbed, see the section named: Flooding, breaches and inundation. This section demonstrates the flooding overlay, due to to levee breaches. In the section itself are several [[Constructions|constructions]: a house, installation with dangerous substances leaking chloride, trees leaking causing fosfor. There is also an inundated area.

This section contains:

1. Flooding overlay
2. Two breaches
3. Initial breach width
4. Inundated area
5. Three substances

Rain and sewage

1. Rain (Weather)
2. Surface flow and runoff
3. Evaporation
4. Infiltration
5. Sewer infiltration
6. Sewer overflow
7. Water storage (for example: Green roof)

Pumps, culverts and weirs

1. Inlet
2. Weir
3. Culvert
4. Pump
5. Sewer overflow
6. Water level area

Groundwater

1. Rain variation over time
2. Evaporation variation over time
3. Underground evaporation and vegetation root depths
4. Underground infiltration
5. Ground water flow
6. Rainfall runoff
