HYDRO_AS-2D | Description

HydroAS-Webviewer

HYDRO_AS-2D is a versatile and reliable software for the 2D simulation of flowing waters and the surface runoff of precipitation. It is based on the numerical solution of the shallow water equations using the Finite-Volume-Method.

HYDRO_AS-2D provides script-driven simulations: Thus, model data can be changed, queried, output or read in during the simulation. Thus, very complex control processes can be modeled in water management systems.

HYDRO_AS-2D has a wide range of applications including:

  • River flooding analysis
  • Heavy rainfall analysis/ urban flash flood modelling
  • Sediment erosion/depositions studies in river channels and floodplains
  • Tidal wave propagation
  • Pollutant dispersion in a waterway

HYDRO_AS-2D | Features

  • Short calculating time for millions of elements

  • Calculation accuracy guaranteed by extensive lab tests and real-world applications

  • High stability, robustness and exactness for a wide spectrum of hydrodynamic conditions

  • Volumetric accuracy of the tidal wave propagation on complicated topography

  • Solutions showing flow speed, direction, and flood depth

  • Fully coupled transport and hydrodynamic solver ensures current changes due to sediment aggradation/erosion are accurately simulated

  • Simulate transport of up to twelve grain dimensions at the same time

  • Easy data input and operation through coupling with SMS by Aquaveo

  • 64-Bit Windows-Version

  • Optional performance boost by use of graphics cards (GPU) or multiprocessing

  • A graphical user interface allows you to conveniently run calculations, test procedures and export data.

  • Script-driven simulations

  • Available in English and German and for Windows and Linux

HYDRO_AS-2D | Scripting

With HYDRO_AS-2D you can replicate very complex control processes in water management systems. The current version offers script-controlled simulations: Thus, model data can be changed, queried, exported or imported during the calculation. The technical basis is the widely used scripting language Lua.

HYDRO_AS-2D thus provides a foundation on which users can creatively develop their own new applications.

For example:

  • Control systems for weirs, sulices, etc.
  • Automatic reading of inflow time series
  • Bidirectional interaction with other models (groundwater, sewer network models)
  • Simulate dike or dam breaches

HYDRO_AS-2D | Extensions

You can use the following extensions to model additional processes or edit your modeling data efficiently.
HydroFT-2D

HYDRO_FT-2D

The solid matter transport simulation model HYDRO_FT-2D extends HYDRO_AS-2D to include transport processes (suspended matter and bedload).
Hydro_WT-2D

HYDRO_WT-2D

HYDRO_WT-2D simulates the heat transport in flowing waters analogous to the transport of pollutants.
