Time Varying Results Grid

The Time Varying Results Grid can be used to display:

• All time varying results for a single network object
• A single time varying result for a selection of network objects
• Summary results for a simulation

Displaying Time Varying Results for a Single Object

To display a grid showing time varying data for a single network object:

1. Make sure the simulation is open, and the GeoPlan Window is the Current Active Window.
2. Click on the grid tool button on the Results Toolbar.
3. Click on a network object on the GeoPlan. If more than one network object is under the cursor, a dialog will be displayed allowing you to choose the required network object.
4. Select a network object and click OK to display the Time Varying Results Grid.

See the Results Data Fields section for details of the fields displayed in the grid.

Displaying Time Varying Results for a Selection of Objects

To display a grid showing a selected time varying attribute for a selection of network objects:

1. Make sure the simulation is open, and the GeoPlan Window is the Current Active Window.
2. Click on the grid selected objects button on the Results Toolbar. This will display the Grid Selection Dialog.
3. In the Grid Selection Dialog, select the attribute and objects to be included in the grid.
4. Click OK to display the Time Varying Results Grid.

See the Results Data Fields section for details of the fields displayed in the grid.

Displaying Summary Results for a Simulation

To display a grid showing summary results for a simulation for an InfoWorks or SWMM network, select Grid windows | New summary results window from the Window menu. The results are displayed in the following grids.

Summary Results for an InfoWorks network

The grid displays the following results:

Results field	Description
Dynamic storage	Calculated as: Total volume - Total outflow
Total outflow	Calculated as: Total outflow from outfalls + Total lost
Total lost	Volume of water lost through nodes of flood type 'lost' since the start of the simulation.
Total outflow from outfalls	Net volume of water that has passed through outfalls since the start of the simulation. Note: Negative values may occur due to flows into the system via outfalls, for example a rising tide level. Flow into/from 2D zones via 2D flooding, 2D inlets, 2D gullies or banks connected to 2D zones is also included.
Total rainfall	Total volume of rainfall onto runoff surfaces since the start of the simulation.
Total runoff	Total volume of runoff from runoff surfaces since the start of the simulation. Note: RDII and infiltration via the soil or ground stores is not included.
Total volume	Total volume of water into the system since the start of the simulation: Inflows (from inflow object) Waste water Trade waste water Runoff Infiltration Rainfall infiltration via soil and groundwater stores Direct rainfall (onto ponds) RDII

Summary Results for a SWMM network

The grid displays the following results:

Results field	Description
Dry weather inflow	Dry weather inflow into the network since the start of the simulation.
Evaporation	Evaporation from the network since the start of the simulation.
External inflow	External inflow into the network since the start of the simulation.
Flood outflow	Total outflow from flooded nodes since the start of the simulation.
Groundwater inflow	Groundwater inflow into the network since the start of the simulation.
Infiltration losses	Infiltration losses into the network since the start of the simulation.
Outfall outflow	Total outflow from outfall type of nodes since the start of the simulation.
Rainfall	Rainfall intensity since the start of the simulation.
RDII inflow	RDII inflow into the network since the start of the simulation.
Runoff	Runoff from the network since the start of the simulation.
Snow depth	Snow depth since the start of the simulation.
Storage volume	Storage volume since the start of the simulation.
System PET	Potential evapotranspiration (PET) in the network since the start of the simulation.
Temperature	Air temperature since the start of the simulation.
Total lateral inflow	Total lateral inflow into the network since the start of the simulation.
