FCV Active State Ignores Inherent Valve Headloss, Allowing Non‑Physical Maximum Flow

When a Flow Control Valve (FCV) becomes active (throttling), OpenFlows replaces or ignores the valve’s fully‑open inherent headloss instead of retaining it. This is hydraulically incorrect, because the valve’s internal geometry (e.g., globe valve ...

Support for Field Math

Sometimes I want to do some field math off of custom fields. For example, I might want to know the difference between the maximum pressure and the minimum pressure for junctions. Currently I can add the fields and populate them but to populate the...

Globally edit pipe material and associated properties

When globally editing pipe material in WaterCAD (using flextables -->pipe), the current option allows you to type in the name of the material, but the associated pipe properties are not updated. It would be convenient if you could globally edit...

Allow for the pipe inverts to match a ratio of the pipe sizes connected to a manhole.

The majority of the time, we must design our storm sewer system to match a particular invert situation, such as matching the 0.8 line of pipe sizes when two different pipe sizes are connected to a structure, rather than matching the inverts or cro...

Improve the tabular report interface

Allow unstacking of columns by scaling and margins. Currently you can only do this by changing the paper size. Allow saving of custom tabular reports (like flextables)

Add the ability to change the order of the Properties categories via Property Grid Customizations

Right now the order of the categories in the Property Editor Tab is predefined by the software and it cannot be rearranged. This can be a nuisance when using smaller monitors or when there are a lot of properties to an element, where you have to s...

Improve Graph Default Interval Increments

Sometimes WaterGEMS seems to have the most peculiar default intervals on graphs on the y-axis. I regularly see intervals of 0.63, 1.25,12.5, and 62.50. All of these tend to obscure the values I actually care about. I would much rather see interval...

[Copy] Connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet

It would be great if ORD had the capability to connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet to be able to calculate spread and bypass at the inlet. Currently the workaround is to connect the channel to a Generic Outfall at the edge of the inlet...

Enhancement Request: Display of Cumulative Flow Volume (m³/day) as Pipe Labels for Improved Calibration and Visualization

We propose the addition of a functionality that allows totalized flow (cumulative volume over a defined period, such as m³/day) to be visualized directly as a pipe label in the model. Currently, only instantaneous flow per timestep is available, r...

Perform computations using hydrograph peak flows

Allow for hydraulic computations to use the peak flow from hydrographs and instead of the dynamic flows generated from the hydrographs. The software StormShed (which is an allowed software for design use by WSDOT) calculates the peak flow from the...
