Manhole-Results: Flows Attributes

Attribute Description
Local Inflow? This field displays True if there is a user-defined flow at the element, and False if there is not. This is a calculated results field and is not editable.
Flow (local From inflow Collection) Sum of all user defined inflows. This is a calculated results field and is not editable.
Flow (Local Surface) Total inflow added from catchment runoff, wet-weather inflow collection and sanitary loads. It does not include the carryover flow from upstream gutter. This is a calculated results field and is not editable.
Flow (Total In) The sum of flow from incoming links + Captured flow from the surface + Locally generated inflow from the inflow and sanitary collections. Flow (Total In) does not include local inflows when using the GVF Convex solver.
Volume (Total Outflow) The total volume of flow exiting the node up to the current time step. This includes all locally injected flow. For conduits this represents the volume of the flow exiting link, including infiltrated flow. Available for EPS runs only. When using the SWMM engine the cumulative volume up to the current time step is computed based on the average flow across the underlying routing time steps, and not the output increment. This results in a more accurate value for the volume which takes into account any portions of the simulation with rapidly fluctuating flow values.
