I use watergems, why when I compute the results it doesn't come out at one hour intervals as shown below. I have set the pattern for one hour intervals for 24 hours running. how can i fix this thank you
At the Home tab, in the Calculation box (the left-most ribbon box), click on "Options". This will open the Calculation Options dialog. Double-click on your desired Calculation Option and the Properties dialog box will open.
In the Properties Option dialog, scroll down to "Reporting Time Step" and set this to 1 hour.
Good luck.
Intermediate time steps are reported when there are important changes in model calculations, or say pumps turn off / on, tanks becomes empty / full at that time step. Which helps you in taking your modeling decisions.
As mentioned by Gary you can change the reported time step constant - 1 hr through calculation options. Currently reporting step must be set to all, which means report all time step which are important and where hydraulic changes take place.
Also here are some WaterGEMS learning resources for your reference.
