Description
This program allows the analysis of water flow through a culvert. It performs checks at the entrance (inlet control) and at the exit (outlet control) of the flow using empirical non-uniform equations. It analyzes rectangular, circular, ellipse-shaped and arch-type culverts that may or may not be submerged. Road over-topping checks are also performed. In most cases the Manning formula is used for friction calculations; however, other friction formulas may be used. The program is compatible with American Regulations (ASCE and WPCF) and new Greek regulations (OMOE 11/2002).

-
You can select the friction equation from a wide variety of formulas:
-
Manning (constant and variable n)
-
Bazin
-
Kutter
-
Ganguillet-Kutter
-
Chezy
-
Hazen-Williams
-
Darcy-Weisbach
-
Customizable culvert profile.
-
The water depth at the exit of the culvert may be manually entered or calculated depending on the section shape and the slope at the exit.
-
Automated checks can optionally account for the flow conditions when maximum velocity and / or maximum capacity occur.
-
Inline unit conversions support entering data in virtually every unit system. All embedded databases for common variables and/or constants are fully customizable and may be shared between different users and / or programs.
