Forum Post: Layout and Geometry Question
When placing a new element (Manhole, Catch Basin, Outfall) the X and Y coordinates under "Geometry" properties are automatically identified and added to the propoerties of each node. The problem is...
View ArticleForum Post: 'positive and negative volume' for reservoirs
Hi What does 'positive and negative volume' mean for 'reservoir' or 'junction' or another elements (except pipes) in 'totalizing flow meters'? I encountered a 'negative volume' for a reservoir. Mohsen

Hi everyone We determine both ‘pressure constraint’ and ‘fire flow constraint’ in ‘fire flow manager page’, but IT bases ‘pressure constraint’ as basic fact, fixes it and calculates available fire...

Dear sirs, Thanks for your effort. for question 1 i found the solution for my problem. but the second question the curve between time and pressure and the calibration between 1-4 a.m only but the...

Hi everyone Which ‘zone’ is considered by WaterGems When we define ‘pressure (zone lower limit)’ in ‘fire flow manager? WaterGems analyse the fire flow for junctions of which zone? I did not find the...

For reservoirs, a positive volume represents water filling the reservoir (going to it) and a negative volume represents water emptying it (going away from it.) For junctions, a positive volume...

Hello, It looks like you are using Feet as the coordinate unit. What units are you using in the design file? If US Survey Feet, then you can change the coordinate units in the StormCAD model to...

That did the trick. Thanks so much, didn't realize it was something so simple, wish it would've have been said in the user manual. Thanks again.

As answered via private message: If you're asking how to set different needed fire flow and fire flow constraints on a node-by-node basis, you can do this by defining local constraints at the bottom...

Dear Jesse Thank you very much my friend. Yes, the answer is there and I do apologize that I did not read it. Mohsen

My pleasure. We'll work on improving this for the future (awareness of unit mismatch between model and drawing)

Hi About 'Dimensionless' & 'unitized' and 'pressure coefficient' & 'pressure exponent' in Darwin Designer, I do not know enough yet. somebody please explain them more. Thankx alot. Mohsen

Currently investigating this and will let you know when we have more information. In the meantime I would suggest using the default.

Moshen, Have you had a look at the following wikis that we currently have on fire flow analysis? 1) Fire Flow Frequently Asked Questions 2) Understanding Automated Fire Flow Results Regards, Mark

In the technote Mark mentioned (#2), make note in particular of the two sections at the bottom: "What if I want to see how much pressure is available exactly at the total needed fire flow? Do I need...
