Instability Results Modeling Interconnected Ponds with Outside Control Structure
José Díaz Camacho
Hi, I’m trying to model two (interconnected ponds as show in the figure below. The whole catchment area will discharge into Pond-1, and then into Pond-2. The client has specifically requested to provide the control structure for runoff mitigation…

how to reduce continuity error in specific pond from model?
Paola Espinoza-Youn
I have run my model and received a very high continuity error in a specific pond in my model. My pond is going to an outlet structure and then an oufall somewhere else in the model is using that pond for a boundary condition. When i plot HGL, flow in…

How does "constant flow" for pond seepage method?
Paola Espinoza-Youn
Hi, I was wondering if I did the "constant flow" method does the pond need to be using Elevation-Area or one of the other options under the volume type that are available? Also i am aware that the solver should be implicit or the GVF-Rational (StormCAD…

Multiple Pond Model with Reverse Overflow
Mark Medina
I've never had to do multiple pond modeling. So this is a first for me. I actually have a couple questions. 1. How do you connect a pond outlet to an Inlet (All of these will be risers)? (Pond 5 needs to overflow into the system using DA-3) . (Pond…
