How Does Green Ampt Cumulative Event Infiltration work in SWMM 5?
Subject: How Does Green Ampt Cumulative Event Infiltration work in SWMM 5 ? This graph shows the values of the internal SWMM 5 parameters for Green Ampt Infiltration for the pervious area of a Subcatchment during a simulation. The parameters are: · F or FTOT which is the cumulative event infiltration at the start of a time interval in the internal units of feet in SWMM 5 , · FU or current moisture content of the upper zone of the of the soil · FUMAX which is the saturated moisture content of the upper zone in feet and stays constant during the simulation Figure 1. How FTOT, FU and F change over time Figure 2. A closer look at how FTOT or F a...
