I'm new to PondPack V8i but was fairly familiar with PondPack 10.
Here's what I need to do: I'm modeling a large basin draining to a proposed culvert that I'm modeling as a pond to see how high the headwater will reach. I have a small basin (developed site) draining through a pond that discharges about 1,500 upstream of the culvert that I need to direct into the culvert "pond".
I'm routing the small pond's outfall to a junction and then through a conduit (reach) but I can't figure out how to connect the conduit to the downstream culvert pond.
Sorry if this topic has come up before, I did attempt to search for it before posting.
Thanks,Allen
Thanks Jesse, that's exactly what I needed to know. I didn't even think to check the sample files, I'll keep that in mind for any future questions.
Hello Allen,
To connect an outlet structure or a "reach" (conduit) to a downstream pond, you'll need an outfall. Set the outfall's boundary condition type to "boundary element", then select the downstream pond. A similar setup is seen in some of the included sample files, such as "Meadow.ppc". The samples are located in the "Samples" folder within your PondPack installation folder, typically C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\PondPack8
We also have a FAQ specifically for users moving from version 10 to V8i, which you may find useful:
