Thanks

  • Hello Hamid,

    You cannot have multiple pond outlet structure elements when using Pondmaker. The best option would be to combine the outlet structures into one element, with a composite outlet structure that uses the individual outlet structure elements (riser, orifice, etc.). For instance, you can have two risers in the same composite outlet structure. Connecting the pond outlet structure element to the downstream manhole would be a conduit the equivalent of the three that already exist in the model. This should allow you to reasonable size the pond. If you have to return to the three separate outlets once the pond is sized, you can simply adjust the model.

    I will highly recommend reviewing the PondMaker TechNote found here: communities.bentley.com/.../using-pondmaker.

    In addition, bear in mind some of the information provided in earlier posts, specifically that if you need to include the fixed inflow at MH-1, you may need to size the pond using a method other than PondMaker.

    Regards,
    Scott
