Running the 2D Solver

  1. Make sure you’ve run “Generate Grid” to capture any changes before computing the model.
  2. Set up the Calculation Options (Analysis tab > Options) to use the 2D solver, desired duration, etc. (Tip: Check out the “Output Flood Period Depths” option.)
  3. Validate (Analysis tab > Validate) the model to check for any input data issues in the User Notifications.
  4. Compute the model (Analysis tab > Compute).
  5. Similar to the Explicit (SWMM) Solver, if the 2D Engine unexpectedly fails, the Calculation Summary dialog appears with useful troubleshooting log details.
