Design Routing

Once a drainage conduit has been designed - either a pipe or channel - you can route the Inflow hydrograph through a reach of specified length to obtain the Outflow hydrograph at the downstream end.

For each conduit design MIDUSS adjusts the time step and reach length to acceptable sub-multiples in order to ensure numerical stability in the routing process.  You are advised of these changes but need not take any action.

The result of the routing operation is displayed in both graphical and tabular form. 

When an outflow hydrograph has been created by some routing operation you may choose from two possible courses of action. Either the outflow can be copied to the inflow array in order to continue to the next downstream link, or the outflow may be stored at a junction node to be combined with other flows at a confluence point.
