| ==Overview==
| |
| TUFLOW is a one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) flood and tide simulation software. It simulates the complex hydrodynamics of floods and tides using the full 1D St Venant equations and the full 2D free-surface shallow water equations.
| |
| | |
| ==TUFLOW interface==
| |
| The TUFLOW interface in SMS exists in several modules including: [[SMS:Cartesian Grid Module|Cartesian Grid Module]], [[SMS:Map Module|Map Module]], [[SMS:Scatter Module|Scatter Module]], and [[SMS:Mesh Module|Mesh Module]]. Many of the TUFLOW building blocks are managed using the Project Explorer.

| ===How do I use TUFLOW?===
| |
| The SMS [[SMS:Tutorials|tutorials]] are a good place to start learning to use SMS and associated models. The following tutorials will help get you started using TUFLOW.

| ==Numeric Engine Background==
| |
| The TUFLOW computational engine computes 1D and 2D hydraulic solutions. The engine is very stable making it an excellent choice for models with lots of wetting and drying. TUFLOW includes 1D cross-sections, 1D pipe networks, 1D and 2D hydraulic structures, and allows rainfall directly on the model domain so it is useful in many different applications including coastal, riverine and urban settings.

| | |
| ==Saving TUFLOW==
| |
| When you do a ''File'' | '''Save As...''' the following files get saved in the *.sms
| |
| | |
| * *.mat referenced to new save location
| |
| * _grds.h5 referenced to new save location
| |
| * *.mat_h5 referenced to new save location
| |
| * Geomcomps.h5 referenced to new save location
| |
| * scatter.h5 referenced to new save location
| |
| * tuflow files don't get saved to new location unless exported again
| |
| | |
| ==Running TUFLOW==
| |
| Before running TUFLOW, the TUFLOW files must be generated from SMS. These files are separate from the files SMS uses to store its TUFLOW information.
| |
| | |
| The options to export the TUFLOW files and run TUFLOW are in the right-click menu of the simulation.
| |
| *Export TUFLOW files – This will export the TUFLOW model files into the run directory (by default a directory named TUFLOW under the project directory).
| |
| *Launch TUFLOW – This will launch TUFLOW under the assumption that the files have already been exported as above.
| |
| *Save Project, Export TUFLOW files, and Launch TUFLOW – This option will save the current SMS project file, export the TUFLOW files, and launch TUFLOW on these files.
