The D-FLOW FM menu in Delft Dashboard resembles the interface of the FM modelling suite. More information can be found in theDelft3D-WAVE manual. Moving within the menu will automatically switch between different windows in the Working Space.

Description

Toolbox

To perform a number of operations according to the Toolbox selected from the Toolbox tab in the Top Menu.  For all the supported models this is the quick mode of the model maker and the possibility to combine several sources of bathymetry.

Model

@

Geometry

The data group Geometry contains the following sub-data groups in the Working Space: Net, Structures, Initial conditions and Miscellaneous. All the tabs are always visible. 

  • Net: the grid (net) and bathymetry can be defined in this tab. On top of that several @
  • Structures: thin dam, thin dyke and man hole files can be inserted in this sub data group.
  • Initial conditions: a initial water level or water level file can be entered
  • Miscellaneous: @

Time Frame

Defines the reference date, start and stop time and time units for the FM computation.

Numerics

To specify parameters related to the Courant Number, Wave velocity fraction, advection type (Weneker, Perot, eg.) and salinity transport limiter (Min Mood, Van Leer eg.)

PhysicsThe data group Physics hosts a number of different physical processes including friction types, coefficient, horizontal and vertical eddy viscosity, Smagorinsky and the possibility to apply a slip conditions.

Wind

To add a uniform wind speed and direction. There are four different wind friction types (constant, two breakpoints, three breakpoints and Charnock). A wind file / air pressure or spiderweb file can be inserted in the data group External Forcing.

External Forcing

The data group External Forcing contains two sub-data groups in the Working Space: Boundaries and Meteo. All the tabs are always visible. 

  • Boundaries: here a polygon can be drawn on the map where a water level, discharge or Rieman boundary can be defined.
  • Meteo: here external meteorological terms can be inserted like a spatial varying wind field, air pressure or a spiderweb.

Output

To select or specify output there a number of possibilities. The data Group Output contains the following sub-data groups in the Working Space: General, Grids, Locations, Curves and Debug. All the tabs are always visible. 

  • General: enables options related to hot stort, verfication of input files and output for a FLOW grid.
  • Grids: gives the user the possibility to write output for the computational grid(s) used.
  • Locations: it is also possible to specify locations by clicking on the map. At the right side of the window the user can define what output (table, 1D spectra, 2D spectra) needs to be presented.
  • Curves: not yet implemented in Dashboard
  • Debug: this feature is used for debugging options where a certain level can be defined were output needs be displayed.
