jrwbell 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2010 Hi. I have a large model that I want to use a restart file to 'hot-start'. At the moment I'm working through the calibration stage. I was wondering about Qi with the hot-started model because it's gone a bit crazy, and hence dV is indicating signifcant inflow into the model. Mass balance is fine and model appears stable in terms of no negative depths and CE is 0.0% but I just thought I'd ask if there's any reason why Qi isn't realistic if using a restart file. The hot-start for the model was set prior to commencement of rainfall into the model, so is just 4 hours of tidal data before the storm event. The primary model had Qi = 0 at equivalent time. Any ideas? cheers Justin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
