DHI MIKE Zero 2023

Integrated platforms: MIKE+
MIKE+ Model Manager
Ability to promote Child to Base in the Scenario Manager

    Rely on a new option to more easily define your base scenario (i.e. default setup) from a set of alternative scenarios
    Avoid having to keep and maintain other alternatives in the model setup

Import and export improvements

    Automatically import user-defined columns from MIKE URBAN databases
    Exclude existing records using a new import option

Improved results management

    Our improved Versions Management and Results Differences tools can now compare the original pipes with merged pipes, despite the different IDs
    Open 2D results on the results maps without opening the model database

MIKE+ Collection Systems
Support of Muskingum Routing after Network Simplification

    Rely on a simplified new method for activating flow routing in catchment connections inclusive of delay and hydrograph attenuation for runoff entering the collection system network
    Have confidence in the accuracy of your results knowing this method aims to compensate for the introduced error when trimming parts of the network
    Avoid extra steps as this function will be activated automatically during the trimming operation, for all reconnected catchments

Ability to specify roughness for pipes and catchments using Manning’s n values

    Users outside of Europe can more easily specify the roughness coefficients of pipes and canals, materials, catchments, parameters kinematic waves and LID editors using Manning’s n values

Ability to disable all model features

    Improve efficiency when managing scenarios with the ability to activate/deactivate all assets (including catchments, load points, etc.) for the simulation
    Allows users to display an unmodelled network and turn off one solution when testing various design options

‘Variable expression’ sensors

    Define complex expressions using a new type of sensor
    Save ‘variable expression’ sensors to the result file

Improved Versions Management tool

    Save time not having to rebuild a simplified model after getting updated asset data
    Our improved Versions Management tool can now compare the original pipes with merged pipes, despite the different IDs

Support for custom flow units for results

    More easily control discharge units when inputting discharge values and visualising results for an improved user experience
    Avoid the hassle of working with non-friendly values

MIKE+ Water Distribution
Miscellaneous improvements

    Export Profile Plot data to a text file
    Choose whether you’d like to exclude items from the simplification using the new Simplification tool filters
    Connect demand allocations and measurement stations using the Connection tool – now available in MIKE+ Water Distribution
    Optimise water networks based on energy consumption and water quality using new water quality, pump power, pump energy cost and pump speed targets
    Automatically regulate the inflow into the storage tank based on the tank level using a new float valve

New ‘Compare’ option

    Assess scenarios quickly and easily using the new ‘Compare’ option
    Avoid having to use ArcGIS for post-processing with the ability to save the difference between two result files to a new file directly within MIKE+

MIKE+ 2D Overland
Support for custom flow units for results

    More easily control discharge units when inputting discharge values and visualising results for an improved user experience
    Avoid the hassle of working with non-friendly values

New ‘Compare’ option

    Assess flood mitigation scenarios quickly and easily using the new ‘Compare’ option
    Avoid having to use ArcGIS for post-processing with the ability to save the difference between two result files to a new file directly within MIKE+

MIKE+ Rivers
Migration of the remaining HD features from MIKE HYDRO River to MIKE+ Rivers (Tell me more)

    Bring your old MIKE HYDRO River models into the MIKE+ platform for advanced visualisation and schematisation tools
    Utilise the following former MIKE HYDRO River HD functionalities directly in MIKE+ Rivers:
    Selection of local ‘Wave approximation’ definition
    Variables
    State files initial conditions and steady-state initial conditions
    Compute Q/h table for Q/h boundary conditions
    ‘Groundwater leakage’ boundary condition
    Structure plots for culverts, weirs, gates, bridges (with US and DS cross sections)
    River boundary conditions shown on map
    Routing rivers and routing points
    Tool to trace rivers from DEM
    Updated ‘Catchment delineation’ tool to delineate catchments from DEM for rivers
    ‘Combine tiles’ tool
    ‘Interpolate resistance’ tool for cross-sections
    Roughness (time-varying) factors and multiple zone definition of roughness

New tool to analyse network quality

    Produce higher-quality models in less time with direct insight from the Network Analysis tool on the most critical locations of the network
    Avoid wasting time trying to figure out problems on your own

Ability to couple MIKE+ models in MIKE SHE

    Go beyond river modelling – better understand infiltration, rising groundwater and interaction with rivers by coupling your MIKE+ model in MIKE SHE
    Consider the wider watershed and hydrological cycle in your catchment

New Automatic Calibration module for NAM/ RDI

    Save time creating RDI models using the new Automatic Calibration module that allows users to find the best values for RDI parameters

Support for custom flow units for results

    More easily control discharge units when inputting discharge values and visualising results for an improved user experience
    Avoid the hassle of working with non-friendly values

MIKE+ SWMM
Ability to use SWMM runoff and interface files directly as input for MIKE 1D simulations

    SWMM result files can now be used as input boundary condition files to read catchment runoff from a *.out file and read flows at SWMM outlets from a *.txt interface file
    Apply a calibrated SWMM hydrology model as inflow to a MIKE 1D hydraulic network with mixed pipes and river channels and 2D overland flow
