Recreating model of older version in 10.00
Recreating model of older version in 10.00
(OP)
Hello,
I am attempting to re-create a hydrocad model based on output reports. This original model was created in version 8.5, and I am using version 10.00 to build it. I have success in getting similar outputs for the subcatchment and reach nodes, but the pond node is behaving oddly, my control orifices are detaining water better than the original model. Have there been changes in the pond node calculations between these versions that account for discrepancies, or am I missing some data point in my analysis?
Thanks for the help,

Is this a pre-fab chamber by any chance? Check the stage-storage to ensure manufacturers specs haven't changed.
I don't believe that there were actual changes in how the calcs are done, just a lot more discharge options, pre-fab chambers, etc ....
All of the Verion 10.00 updates and build info is listed here?

If you're getting different results there must be a difference in the input data. I suggest you review the 8.5 summary reports very carefully and make sure everything is exactly the same. Of course, the easiest solution would be to obtain the 8.5 file, which can be opened directly in 10.0.
