Total Volume of Structure

Finding total volume of a structure would be useful (similar to the volume Static Tool in MicroDrainage).At present the only way to do it is look at the storage tab and hover over a depth in the storage structure section and it shows the depth and...

Deep bore soakaways should able to have different infiltration rates

Where there are different infiltration rates (as the deep bore passes through different soils) it would be helpful if Flow was able to replicate what has possible in other software for some time, where these can be applied based on the sub soil ma...

Minimum Pipe Length

The mimimum pipe length in Flow is currently set to 1m. Where modelling junctions and connections there may be less than 1m between the junctions. Please revise the minimum length to around 300-500mm.

Time to half empty Calculations

I have a request regards time to half empty of infiltration systems. Irrespective of what I set in the preference page (whether time to half empty by volume or by storm) I just get time to half empty of the structure. That isn’t very useful inform...

Include check dam option in swales

Check dams are commonly used in swales to temporarily pond runoff to increase pollutant retention and infiltration and decrease flow velocity, but Flow does not have an option to model them. As they are a recognised SuDS feature, and commonly used...

Exporting Link Hydrograph Table to Excel

Currently when the Link Hydrograph Output is exported to Excel to cells are locked and the user is unable to create graphs etc. as these are greyed out. There is a work around in that the entire output's values can be copied into a new spreadsheet...

Rainfall intensities added to Link Hydrograph Output Table

Including the rainfall intensities in the Link Hydrograph Output Table, will enable the the rainfall profile to be superimposed onto the Level/Depth profiles.

Design Report Rainfall Totals

The rainfall contained in the Design Report just indicates Peak and Average Intensities. The total rainfall for the storm event should also be documented, particularly as the first 5mm of rainfall now requires interception. There will be some even...
