OpenFlows StormCAD 2024 (24.00.00.25)

OpenFlows StormCAD is a comprehensive software solution developed by Bentley Systems for modeling and analyzing stormwater systems. It is widely used by civil engineers and designers to effectively design, simulate and analyze stormwater networks.

With OpenFlows StormCAD, users can create accurate models of rainwater harvesting systems, including pipes, inlets, drains, channels and storage structures. The software provides intuitive tools to define network layout, specify design parameters, and input rainfall data.

Once the stormwater system is modeled, StormCAD provides powerful analysis capabilities to evaluate factors such as flow rate, velocity, pipe capacity and storage capacity. It provides various calculation methods, including rational methods, hydrological SCS (NRCS), and hydraulic routing techniques.

StormCAD also helps engineers evaluate and optimize the performance of stormwater systems. It allows simulation of various scenarios, such as rainfall and land development changes, to determine system capacity, identify potential problems, and recommend appropriate design modifications.

The software provides a range of reporting and visualization options, allowing users to create detailed reports, charts and maps of their stormwater patterns and analysis results. These outputs assist in communicating findings and recommendations to project stakeholders.

Overall, OpenFlows StormCAD provides a valuable set of tools for planning, designing, and managing effective stormwater drainage systems. It helps ensure regulatory compliance, optimize system performance, and enhance the resiliency and sustainability of civil engineering projects related to stormwater management.
