Conclusions I order finite volume solver employing two different treatments of source terms has been applied to the isolated test case The comparisons between measured and simulated data is acceptable, the wave propagation is slower than in the experiments, the maximum water depth values are almost represented The upwind treatment seems more accurate in the gauges close to the building and reproduces more correctly the emptying phenomena Thank you for your attention!!
