Manhole-Physical: Surface Storage
Manhole-Surface Storage Attributes
Attribute | Description |
---|---|
Surface Storage Type | Lets you choose how surface storage is handled. The value chosen here affects the availability of other fields: select Default Storage Equation , Surface Depth-Area Curve , No Storage , or Ponded Area .The Default Storage Equation uses the following formula: Area = 0.262 y - 0.068 y 2 + 0.006 y3 (y<4.0 ft) Area=0.344 (y>4.0 ft) where Y is the depth above the ground. |
Surface Depth-Area Curve | Lets you describe the volume of the surface storage by defining depth vs. area points. Click the Ellipsis (…) button in this field to open the Surface Depth-Area dialog box (see "Surface Depth-Area Curve Editor"-146). This field is available only when the Surface Storage Type attribute is set to Surface Depth-Area Curve . |
Area (Constant Surface) | Lets you define the area in which ponding occurs at the currently selected element. It is available only when the Surface Storage Type attribute is set to Ponded Area . |
