Lateral Flows

Purpose
This tool allows the computation of lateral flow between areas from MIKESHE and MIKE21 model results. The model results can be specified as:

Surface water flows
Groundwater flows (from MIKESHE)

In comparison with the tool “MShe_FlowThroughLine .exe” as distributed by DHI, this tool computes the MIKESHE OL and SZ lateral flows among more than two neighbor areas in a user-friendly GUI environment.

Usage
The user must select the desired options and enter the necessary grid files. They are the model result dfs2/dfs3 file and the grid code dfs2 file. After that, the user can specify the time period within which to process and compute the lateral flows. The lateral flows between each pair of neighboring grid codes are saved into a comma-separated (csv) file. The option of processing Mike21 results is still in testing, though.
The free version allows the user to save the lateral flows of the first pair of neighboring grid codes.

Pre-requisites
It requires MIKE ZERO 2012, 2014, 2016, 2017 or 2019 to be installed, but the DHI license is not necessary.

Example of use
The screens shown below illustrate the processing of the file “Karup_Example_DemoMode2_3DSZflow.dfs3” with grid codes in the file “Karup_Example_DemoMode1_PreProcessed.dfs2”, which are provided with the installation of the Toolbox.

The columns contain only positive flows between grid coded areas. Thus, the total or net flow from code 1 to code 2 is equal to “1->2” minus “2->1”. In the case of working with groundwater flows, the layer numbering convention is that they are numbered from the bottom up, starting with zero. Therefore, in the case of having three SZ layers, “SZ0” correspond to the bottom and “SZ2” to the top layers.
