Allow saving and reviewing partial EPS results when “Cannot Solve Equations” occurs

When running Extended Period Simulations (EPS), the occurrence of the “Cannot Solve Equations” error currently causes the entire simulation to fail, with no access to results from the timesteps that were successfully solved prior to the error. It ...

Allow for structure inverts to match or be based on lowest pipe invert

Applicable to CivilStorm/StormCAD/OpenRoads Drainage. In previous drainage softwares, like InRoads Storm and Sanitary, The invert of the structure was not something that was manually input like it is in CivilStorm/StormCAD. Instead the structure i...

Solve for fire hydrant potential delivery to fire pumper truck

WaterGems fire flow analysis gives the flow at points to bring the pressure down to 20 psi or the flow which will reduce the pressure elsewhere to 20 psi, whichever flow is least. That analysis predicts what flows can be potentially extracted from...

Do not report available fire flow for unbalanced nodes

Currently, during an available fire flow run, if a node is unbalanced, a resulting available fire flow gets reported, which appears to be the result of the last iteration (even if the run is unbalanced). This can lead to an erroneous interpretatio...

OpenFlows - SewerCAD/GEMS Ideas

1. User Data Extension – Make all input fields available to create formulas. As it is right now, I cannot use labels of property fields from a manhole (or a TAP) and use it to create a formula for a conduit. It would be great to be able to use tha...

Results (statistics) for average flow

It is sometimes necessary to view the average flow through an element. It's a strange ommission that min and max flow fields are available from Results (statistics) group, but average flow is not.

Add a “Surge Valve Between Pipes” element with differential pressure (ΔP) control and configurable downstream pressure

In HAMMER/OpenFlows, relief/surge valves are typically modeled as discharging to atmosphere, or with logic that does not adequately represent “in-line” relief valves (between two pipes) whose actuation depends on the pressure differential between ...

Include Discrete Gas Cavity Model in Bentley Hammer for Cavitation

The discrete gas cavity model is used in other transient analysis software and is described in various texts such as Thorley. It captures variable wavespeed phenomenon due to changing air pocket volume. It has been observed that models which exper...

Show Utilities Crossings on Profile

Objective: To develop a software solution that seamlessly integrates OpenFlows with OpenRoads, facilitating the generation of utility profiles (StormWater, WasteWater, WaterSupply, etc.) and ensuring efficient crossings with other pipes and networ...

Allow SCADA Elements to Associate with Customer Meters

In our system we have hundreds of physical customer meters that report hourly pressure. I have these in the model as SCADA elements and they are very useful but... the SCADA elements can only be associated with a junction somewhere else, so the el...
