I am designing a sewer network with several weirs and outfalls. For modelling the weir I am using a control structure (inline weir) in the rainwater outlet and a orifice control structure in the waste water outlet.
The obtained results seems to be wrong because of the inline weir. The Manhole A420 overflows although the rainwater outlet is only at 32% of its capacity.
The weir height is 10cm, so it can't be causing such overflow. The result of the same network without the weir is:
I need help with this design.
Thanks in advance.
Hello Luis,
I created a model with a similar configuration, but wasn't able to reproduce what you are seeing. Please provide the product you are using, the version number, and the model files. There are two options for sharing your model on Communities, whichever you choose please be sure to zip your files first. The first option is to attach the zip file containing your model to your reply on the forum using the Advanced Reply Editor (you'll find the link below and to the right of the reply box). If your data is confidential please use the instructions in the link below to send it via Bentley Sharefile. Files uploaded to Sharefile can only be viewed by Bentley employees. Please be sure to reply on this thread with the name of the file after it has been uploaded.
