Subject: How Does a TYPE2 Pump Work in SWMM 5?
A SWMM 5 Type2 pump flow is a function of the depth at the upstream node (Figure 1) but the pump rules can be overwritten by a RTC Rule as in the attached example in which the pump is only turned on then the flow in the upstream link 8040 is greater than 25 cfs.
