OpenFlows Sewer is a comprehensive hydraulic analysis application that enables engineers to design and analyze sanitary, stormwater, and combined sewer systems using built-in hydraulic and hydrology capabilities so they can meet increasing population demands, address aging infrastructure challenges, and decrease risks.
Plan, Design, and Analyze Sewer and Storm Systems Effectively
- Interoperable hydraulic modeling
- Connect 1D network elements with 2D surface flows
- Easy model management and remediation analysis with unlimited number of scenarios
- Understand surface flooding depth and velocity, as well as flood hazards
Make Intelligent, Accurate Decisions
- Comprehensive analysis of all aspects of sewer and storm systems
- Strategies for design, operations, sanitary loading and network topology
- Steady-state simulation (including peak flow) and long-term continuous simulation
- Integrate data across multiple platforms with the power of real-time SCADA analysis
Mitigate the Risks and Ensure System Resilience
- Predict and meet population demands
- Perform overflow remediation analysis and design
- Critical storm analysis
- Design cost-effective system expansions and rehabilitation strategies
DESIGN AND ANALYZE SANITARY AND COMBINED SEWER SYSTEMS
Analyze gravity flow, overflows, flow splits/diversions, pump stations, and force mains with various dry- and wet-weather calculation methods. Compare solutions with automated gravity system design and scenario management capabilities. Design and analyze stormwater systems by performing comprehensive analyses for inlet capture and bypass flows, gutters, detention facilities, open channels, and culverts.
SCENARIO MANAGEMENT
Configure, evaluate, visualize, and compare an unlimited number of scenarios within a single file. Evaluate strategies for design, operations, sanitary loading, and network topology to improve decision-making.
INTEROPERABLE HYDRAULIC MODELING
Model within several platforms while accessing a single, shared project data source so you can produce optimal urban sewer planning and overflow remediation analysis designs in an easy-to-use environment.
1D/2D HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
Understand surface flooding depth and velocity, flood hazard, and inundation times with user-friendly capabilities that connect 1D network elements with 2D surface flows.
MULTIPLE 1D HYDRAULIC SOLVER OPTIONS
Perform dynamic 1D analysis using Saint-Venant equations. Use the GVF-Convex solver to analyze peak flows, automatically design storm sewers, or perform extended-period simulations.
LOADING ALLOCATION AND ESTIMATION
Accurately model flow changes over the course of a day. Load models with wet weather runoff flows from precipitation using built-in rainfall distributions or user-defined rainfall events.
OpenFlows Sewer includes the capabilities of OpenFlows SewerGEMS and SewerCAD. The software is licensed in four convenient tiers. See the Comparison Checklist to decide the tier that best suits your project and analysis needs.
