SWMM5 Groundwater Flow Components
Note: There are three sub flow components in the calculation of the groundwater flow from a SWMM 5 Subcatchment. 1 st Component : Flow = Groundwater Flow Coef. * (LowerDepth – Aquifer Bottom to Node Invert) ^ Groundwater Flow Exponent 2 nd Component : Flow = SurfaceWater Flow Coef. * (Aquifer Bottom to Water Surface – Aquifer Bottom to Node Invert) ^ SurfaceWater Flow Exponent 3 rd Component : Flow = SurfaceWater- Groundwater Flow Coef. * (Aquifer LowerDepth * Aquifer Bottom to Node Invert) The total flow is the sum of all three components .
