Hi Ferdi, thanks for your detailed videos on Flow - as a new user they have been really helpful. Do you have any advice/tips for getting the software to report out the half drain times for structures i.e. geocellular soakaway with no outfall? I'm struggling to get this information out of the model and wondering if I'm doing something wrong!
Hi Pete! Thanks for your support and feedback. I believe that you can get the half drain time after you run the simulation and go to the storage tab and when you select the node it should show a text saying the half drain time. Hope this helps.
@@CivilTechSource I was hoping this would be the case but it just leaves it blank even after running a sim. Seems to work using flow-through-pond tool but not when modelling a standalone depth/area node. Thanks for your help though, appreciated - might need to call Causeway!
Hi. I'm fairly new to Flow and am struggling with certain parts of the design. Your videos have been excellent so far. If you could just clarify something that would be great. If I'm designing a Hydro-Brake at the end of a Storage tank should my Design Flow equal the qBar I plan on designing the tank for. So lets say I have a 1, 30 and 100 year Return Periods within the Check Discharge Rates. Lets say they give a 2, 5 and 10l/s qBar values. Which should I use for the Hydro-Brake Design Flow. I hope you get what I mean. I find it hard to explain over a comment.
Hi A Kin, glad to hear that you have been finding the videos useful! It seems you are after a complex vortex flow control chamber. Basically the short answer is to use multiple controls in the same manhole at different levels (For example at the bottom you have a hydrobrake then higher up an orifice). If you use the Civil Tech Source forum to raise this question to answer more in detail that would be great! Thanks for the support.

Hey, I'm having the same issue on my project, just wondering how you ended up solving it? @@thepongopete
