The ground water mode can be configured in the Rain event step of a Water Overlay wizard.

0. None: No infiltration, no groundwater flow, no ground evaporation.
1. Complete: Full groundwater simulation, including infiltration, flow, and evaporation
2. Infiltration only: Water can Infiltrate into the unsaturated zone only, but no further ground flow or ground evaporation is simulated. The unsaturated zone is simulated to have infinite capacity.

Notes

  • Groundwater Overlays have the ground model active by default. The other Water Overlay variants have the ground model set to infiltration only. This is a recommended setting, trading in an imperceptible amount of accuracy for a more performant calculation setup.
  • This setting does not affect water flowing in- and out of the sewer.
