We use 20 mm, 25 mm and 30 mm rains to size the pond. For example, the Rating Curve “20mm” is sized under 20 mm rain for the scenario “Post-20mm-detention”, and “20mm-10mmIA” is sized under 20 mm rain for the scenario “Post-20mm-detention-10mm-IA”. The similar naming rule is applied to the other control scenarios.
The rating curves can be obtained from single-event simulations. For your exercise, please find the single-event model “…/model/solution/Detention Ponds – Single-event.voprj” and refer to tutorial – Sizing a Pond Using the Route Reservoir Command
You can find the rating curve for each control scenario in the sheet “Rating Curve” of the Excel file “…/data/Cross Section and Rating Curve.xlsx”. Simply copy and paste them to each scenario to continue the exercise for the rest of this tutorial.
For example, in the scenario “Post-20mm-detention”, select the RouteReservoir command on the Schematic view. Click the button 

Open the EXCEL file and copy the corresponding rating curve table without header by Ctrl+c.

Go back to VO. Click on the first cell under the DISCH column in the Discharge Storage Editor window. Paste the copied table to the Discharge Storage Editor by Ctrl+v.
