Head Unit Flow Data Fields (InfoWorks)

Head unit flow tables are used to define the relationship between head and:

  • flow per unit length of crest of Base Linear Structures (2D) that have Structure type set to User control, where head is the difference between the upstream water level and either the downstream water level or the crest level of the structure, whichever is higher
  • unit flow through the 2D Boundary when the Boundary line type is set to Level & Head/discharge, where head difference is the difference between upstream water level and either downstream water level or crest level, whichever is higher.
Note: To view all data relating to this object, use the Object Properties Window. These data fields are read-only in ICMLive Operator Client. Network objects are configured in InfoWorks ICM Ultimate and ICMLive Configuration Manager. Please refer to the InfoWorks ICM help for more details.

The following describes all the data used to define a Head Unit Flow.

Fields that are common to the majority of objects can be found in the Common Fields topic.
