Overview

In SMS versions 10.1 and earlier, the bottom roughness is specified using the Manning's n coefficient in the Cells tab of the CMS-Flow Model Control window (see Figure 1). In SMS 11.0, the option is provided to use a roughness height, or bottom friction coefficient in addition to the Manning's coefficient. In SMS 11.0 the bottom roughness is specified in the Bottom Friction Dataset section of within the Input tab of the CMS-Flow Model Control window (see Figure 2). The Bottom Friction Dataset is specified at every computational (ocean) cell and is required for each model simulation.

Creating Bottom Friction Dataset

Figure 2.4. Initialization of the Bottom Friction Dataset in SMS 11.0

In SMS 11.0 each time a new CMS-Flow simulation is created a bottom friction (roughness) dataset needs to be created using the Create Dataset button. The bottom friction parameter (related to Manning ) is spatially varying (cell-specific) over the grid domain. The default value upon grid creation is 0.025. At times a user may desire to represent locations where added friction is needed due to structures or increased turbulence due to sharp changes in current speed. More information on using this feature of CMS-Flow can be found here.


Figure 3. Three SMS Project Explorer showing the Manning's n, Bottom Friction Coefficient and Roughness Height datasets.

Once the Bottom Friction Dataset is created and the CMS-Flow Model Control window closed, a new auxiliary dataset will appear in the SMS Project Explorer (see Figure 3). Table 1. shows a list of the CMS cards related to the bottom friction datasets.

Editing the Bottom Friction Dataset

Bottom roughness datasets may be edited manually, using the Data Calculator or by interpolating from a scatter set. Figure 4 shows an example where the Manning's n coefficient is increased for Shark River Inlet to account for the presence of vertical piles.

Exporting the Bottom Friction Dataset

Exporting the bottom roughness (friction) datasets is useful for creating different project alternatives or when switching from different bottom roughness datasets types such as from Manning's n to Bottom Friction Coefficient and back.
