Conduit is a command (e.g. pipe, channel, etc.) that conveys water from one command to another one.
Parameter Name | Description | Default Value |
---|---|---|
NHYD | Hydrograph number. | — |
NAME | Name of the component. | — |
From Node | The name of the from node. | — |
To Node | The name of the destinated node. | — |
COMMENT 1, 2, and 3 | Comment for the command. | — |
Tag | Optional category or classification. | |
System Type | Specifies the junction’s system type, whether it belongs in the overland, storm, or sanitary system. | Blank |
Shape | Edit the geometric properties of the conduit’s cross-section. | CIRCULAR |
Geometry 1, 2, 3, and 4 | Based on the selected shape, the value will change. | |
Full Depth [m] | Maximum depth of the conduit’s cross section (m or ft) | 1 |
Length [m] | Conduit length (m or ft) | 400 |
Inlet Offset [m] | Depth or elevation of the conduit invert above the node inverts at the inlet end of the conduit (m or ft). | 0 |
Outlet Offset [m] | Depth or elevation of the conduit invert above the node inverts at the outlet end of the conduit (m or ft). | 0 |
Slope [%] | Slope of the conduit. | |
Roughness | Manning’s roughness coefficient. | 0.01 |
Initial Flow [m3/s] | Initial inflow in the conduit at the start of the simulation (flow units). | 0 |
Flow Limit [m3/s] | Maximum flow in the conduit (flow unit)- use 0 or leave blank if not applicable. | 0 |
Full Flow [m3/s] | Max/full flow. | 0 |
Entry Loss Coeff. | Head loss coefficient associated with energy losses at the entrance of the conduit. | 0 |
Exit Loss Coeff. | Head loss coefficient associated with energy losses at the exit of the conduit. | 0 |
Ava. Loss Coeff. | Head loss coefficient associated with energy losses along the length of the conduit. | 0 |
Flap Gate | YES, if the flap gate exists that prevents flow back through the conduit, or NO if no flap gate exists. | NO |
Culvert Code | Code number of inlet geometry if the conduit is a culvert subject to possible inlet flow control – leave blank otherwise. | 0 |
Inlet | Click on … to insert the features of the inlet. |
