OpenFlows Storm is a multiplatform hydraulic and hydrologic modeling solution developed for engineers to analyze complex stormwater systems, improve pond design, and gain workflow efficiency. Detect system bottlenecks, improve capacity, and limit stormwater flooding to comply with regulations.
Plan, Design and Analyze Stormwater Systems Effectively
- 1D/2D hydraulic analysis for surface flood modeling
- Design the most cost-effective pipe sizes and invert elevations
- Model complex pond outlets for a variety of tailwater conditions
- Import rainfall data and distributions
Make Intelligent, Accurate Decisions
- Detect system bottlenecks, improve capacity, and limit stormwater flooding
- Automatically determine cost-effective pipe sizes and invert elevations
- Easy model management with scenario management and 1D solver options
- Integrate data across multiple platforms with the power of real-time analysis
Mitigate Risks and Ensure System Compliance
- Limit stormwater flooding and comply with regulations
- Design high quality stormwater systems with minimal capital investments
- Perform critical storm analysis
- Perform remediation analysis for a variety of system conditions
PLAN, DESIGN, AND ANALYZE STORMWATER SYSTEMS
Perform comprehensive analyses for all aspects of stormwater systems, including rainfall and runoff modeling for urban watersheds, inlet capture and bypass flows, gravity storm sewer and pressure piping, 2D surface flows, ponds and outlet structures, open channels, and culverts.
SCENARIO MANAGEMENT
Configure, evaluate, visualize, and compare an unlimited number of scenarios within a single file. Easily make decisions by comparing alternative designs or proposed rehabilitation methods for a variety of system conditions.
INTEROPERABLE HYDRAULIC MODELING
Build your hydraulic model by synchronizing network data from standard formats (GIS and CAD files, databases, and spreadsheets). Import and export model files using the EPA SWMM file format. Import rainfall data and distributions from external sources. Incorporate real-time or historical system conditions from SCADA or other data sources.
MULTIPLE 1D HYDRAULIC SOLVER OPTIONS
Multiple solvers are available for your project needs, including the GVF-Rational solver to evaluate peak flow conditions or automatically design storm sewers (sizing pipes and setting elevations); Implicit and Explicit (SWMM) dynamic solvers use the full 1D Saint-Venant equations to evaluate unsteady flow, storage, and overflows.
1D/2D HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
Understand surface flooding depth and velocity, flood hazard, and inundation times with user friendly tools that connect 1D network elements with 2D surface flows.
