SWQ Model Setup

SWQ model setup includes the following components:

  • Urban catchments with hydrological parameters for the applied precipitation-runoff model
  • Rainfall boundary condition (any type of uniform or spatially distributed rain (dfs0 or dfs2)
  • WQ component(s) and/or ST fraction(s)
  • SWQ Global data
  • SWQ local parameters (applies for Build-up/wash-off and EMC methods only)
  • SWQ boundary conditions (Surface and/or RDI): multiple boundary conditions are specified in case when spatial differentiation of SWQ loads is analyzed, e.g. case of different catchment surface types or land uses
  • SWQ Boundary properties: for each SWQ boundary condition properties have to be defined for each pollutant component and/or sediment fractions.
  • SWQ Output definition
  • Simulation setup

In the following sections, SWQ-specific model setup is presented in full detail.

Finally, the workflow sequence is briefly described in section Workflow.

General issues (urban catchments, rainfall boundary conditions, WQ components, ST fractions, Output definition and Simulation setup) are described elsewhere in the MIKE+ Collection System User Guide.
