Hi, I am trying to model chute drains in sewergems. Scenario is , that we have to model a very steep drain from start to stop ground level of 13m to 10m respectively in a length of 10m in the embankment, as in the picture below.
Hi Jesse,
In sewergems i am using GCF-rational solver for storm modelling. The intent is that chutes and "energy dissipating basin" are sized correctly. Also, with steep slopes i should be able to see that if any jump happens it is contained within the chute itself.
Regards,
Arunima
Thanks for clarifying. In that case, you can use the suggestion in my previous reply where the curb cut is modeled as a catchbasin element with either a catalog inlet set to the curb inlet type, or a custom rating curve. The chute would be modeled using a channel or conduit element with cross sectional shape modeled according to the shape of the chute, and the energy dissipation basin could be modeled as a manhole or transition element with structure loss method set to model the resistance through it.

Will update you in couple of days after running the model.
