TUFLOW FV
Model Info
Model type Two-dimensional (2D) flexible mesh finite volume flood, tide and water quality simulation software.
Developer WBM BMT WBM (Australia)
Web site www.tuflow.com
Tutorials SMS Learning Center

TUFLOW FV (which stands for Two-dimensional Unsteady FLOW Finite Volume) simulates hydrodynamic, sediment transport, and water quality processes using a flexible mesh finite volume numerical model. Can be used for in oceanic, coastal, estuarine, and riverine modeling.

The TUFLOW FV model can be added to a paid edition of SMS.

TUFLOW FV ENGINE

The TUFLOW computational engine computes 2D hydraulic solutions. The engine uses a macro style text-file input which allows the user to flexibly and efficiently control model configurations and simulations.

For more information see the TUFLOW FV webpage.

SMS Interface

The TUFLOW FV engine is interfaced in SMS through the generic model interface.

TUFLOW FV Menu

If the TUFLOW FV model paremeters have been correctly loaded into SMS, the TUFLOW FV menu is available when the Mesh module is active. The menu has the following commands:

  • Check Mesh
  • Define Model
  • Global Parameters
  • Assign BC
  • Material Properties
  • Run TUFLOW-FV

Using the Model / Practical Notes

A TUFLOW licence is not required to run a TUFLOW FV model.
