Introducing the powerful integration of FLO-2D Pro and EPA Storm Water Management Model (SWMM 5), revolutionizing storm drain modeling for urban environments. With two interconnected computational domains, this cutting-edge system provides a comprehensive solution for accurate flood predictions.
Key Highlights:
1. Seamless Integration: FLO-2D storm drain model works in harmony with the surface water system, encompassing all urban elements like channels, levees, buildings, and streets.
2. Inlet Discharge Calculation: The model accurately computes storm drain inlet discharge using the weir and orifice equations based on predicted water surface elevations.
3. Versatile Inlet Options: Choose from three typical storm drain inlet designs, with an additional option for unique inlet conditions represented by a stage-discharge rating table. It also simulates manholes for comprehensive modeling.
4. Dynamic Functionality: Inlets and outlets operate based on pressure head vs. water surface elevation, ensuring precise surface water and storm drain interaction.
5. Return Flow Management: Effortlessly account for outfall return flow to surface water, including channels and floodplain elements, for a more realistic representation.
6. Manhole Cover Behavior: Model manhole covers can pop off during surcharge, allowing return flow and functioning as inlets/outlets throughout the simulation.
7. Customizable Curb Height: Easily input curb height adjustments for flow calculations based on street cross slope.
With FLO-2D Pro's enhanced storm drain modeling capabilities, engineers can now achieve more accurate flood predictions, enabling better urban flood management and mitigation strategies. Say goodbye to guesswork and embrace the power of integrated storm drain modeling for improved flood risk reduction.
