  • Re: PondPack V8i - Orifices in series??

    Hello Josh, Yes, Pondpack can model orifices in series. Since you had also submitted your question to technical support, I took a look at your model and diagram and found the problem.Basically you need to have the 7" orifice and "upstream culvert…
  • PondPack V8i: Time vs. Elevation

    When modeling a simple pond with free outfall, PondPack produces a time vs. elevation report for the pond. When modeling a pond with a TW-Elev curve at the outfall, PondPack does not produce a time vs. elevation report for the pond. How do I get the time…
