Introduction

Files

MSG Message File. This file is appended to by each of the modules. This file contains
errors messages, statistical data, warnings, and status checks pertaining to this run.
Because no module will overwrite or delete this file, it is advisable to delete this file
before running another module (or sequence of modules). Deleting this file after
reading it will prevent confusion.

Refer to Section 1.7 [page 6] for a listing of where and when each of these files are used.

1. 7 Program Modules
The HYDROSS model is a series of computer programs that we will refer to as "modules".
For a complete discussion on each of the modules refer to section 2.2 [page 91. The HYDROSS
program modules and their functions are:

H400 Main compute module and
H400v Main compute module (overlay version).
Input: INPC, NETB, TBLB, FLOB
Output: ODS, Message listing.

H410 Table pre-processor.
Input: TBLS
Output: TBLB, Message listing.

H420 Flow pre-processor.
Input: FLOS
Output: FLOB, Message listing.

H440 Network Map
Input: NETS
Output: MSG, GRF

H430 Network pre-processor and
H430v Network pre-processor (overlay version).
Input: NETS, TBLB
Output: NETB, Message listing.
H450 Report generator and
H450v Report generator (overlay version).
Input: FLOB, TBLB, NETB, ODS, INPR, UFIL (Optional; units).
Output: REPT, RPRN (if needed), Message listing.

Certain modules need to be run before other modules, (i.e. the report generator needs the
results from the computation module). For best results, use the following sequence:

I. H410
2. H420
3. H430 (or H43Ov)
4. H440 (run prior to H430 ifnetworkfails)
5. H400 (or H400v)
6. H450 (or H45Ov)
