BENCHMARKING 2D MODELS - HEC-RAS 5.0 versus INFOWORKS ICM

September 3rd, 2015 – Presented to TFMA Fall Technical Summit

By:Tom Davies, PE; Hydraulics Group Lead - North Texas Water ResourcesMayank Mehta, PE; Hydraulic Engineer - North Texas Water Resources

Why 2D?

2

UK Environment Agency benchmarking of 2D Software Packages

• Benchmark 2010 – 14 packages

• Benchmark 2013– 19 packages

Test 2: Filling of floodplain depressions

Test 3: Momentum conservation over a small obstruction

Test 4: Speed of flood propagation over an extended floodplain

Test 5: Valley floodingTest 6: DambreakTest 7: River and floodplain linkingTest 8: Surface flow from a surcharging sewer in urban areas

HEC-RAS beta does crash more often than you would expect…

Not so user friendly error messages…

1. Cells without cell center2. Cells with more than 8 faces51

Key Differences between HEC-RAS and InfoWorks ICM

2D domain dynamically linked to a 1D river and sewer network engine

Sewer Network – integrating modeling

Does everything within one package so doesn’t link with other packages

Flexible mesh – allows user friendly meshing interface

Speed of running and robustness/stability of run

Allows for Direct Rainfall modelling

QA/QC tools

Expensive
