How will my peak flow results be affected if I use cumulative storm opposed to incremental storm?
Francis Flynn
I understand the difference between incremental and cumulative when it comes to inputting storm data into PondPack, but I need a better understanding of why I get different peak flows when using cumulative. What does PondPack do differently for the calculation…

PondPack - Trouble Modeling an Outlet Control Structure
Adam Bendrick
I've been tasked with modeling this outlet control structure using PondPack. I've run into two problems: 1.) modeling the T-shaped weir near the top of the wall without double-counting the flow of the initial 1' wide weir section. Modeling the shape…

How does PondPack calculate the rating curve for an irregular weir (specifically a trapezoidal weir)?
Adam Vento
I have tried to replicate the calculations using the standard weir equation [Q = CLH^(3/2)], but have since realized that PondPack must be applying an additional factor to the calculation that is based on the head, because the factor varies as the head…
