After opening EE10, the user has a number of different ways to create a new model, three approaches are:

  1. Click the Model button on the main menu toolbar, then select New Model (see Create New Model#Figure 1).

  2. Click the New Model button directly on the main menu toolbar (see Create New Model#Figure 2).

  3. From the keyboard, press Ctrl+N.

After one of these three ways is used to create a new model, the Grid Tool  form appears. From this form, the user has four options for assigning grids:

  1. Import Grids from Files: this option allows the user to import an existing grid file; the grid can be one of a number of formats including CVLGrid or RGFGrid. If the user has multiple sub-grids for a waterbody then the Multiple grid files  check box may be selected. Browse to the grid file and click OK button to finish. (see Create New Model#Figure 3 and Create New Model#Figure 4).

  2. Generate Uniform Grid: this option allows the user to generate a Cartesian grid. The user can define grid cell size and  the number of cells (see Create New Model#Figure 5).

  3. Generate Radial Grid: this option allows the user to generate radial grid ( see Create New Model#Figure 6).

  4. Generate Telescoping Grid: this option allows the user to generate a telescoping grid ( see Create New Model#Figure 7).

Details of how to use these options are provided in the Model Grid section.
