Cumulative area discounts flow through structures and network before

The cumulative area calculation discounts everything before a flow through structure and the nodes attached to the structure. LLFA's are now requesting calc files due to the print out also reading your incorrect pathing of calculations. Theirs no ...

Infiltration Half Drain time calculations

We have recently been challenged by Wiltshire LLFA regarding half drain times. As I understand it, Flow calculates the half drain time to CIRIA 156 which gives a significantly longer half drain time than the BRE365 method that Micro Drainage uses....

Add Urban Creep locally for each area/catchment

This is especially applicable now given some areas may have 100% impermeable while other will have greenfield with a possible option to turn to impermeable. Users can also adjust Cv value locally. The design report should contain the new additions.
