HELE I: Hydraulic Elements I

Key Features

– Pipeflow normal depth and critical depth factors including:
– Velocity
– Flow area
– Flow top-width
– Hydraulic depth
– Pressure-plus-momentum
– Froude number

– Estimates the lower of 2 possible normal depths when applicable.

– Gradually varied flow profiles for trapezoidal, v-ditch, rectangular, and pipe channels, which includes profile computations for:

– Ml, M2, M3
– C1, C2
– S1, S2, S3

– Evaluates hydraulic control and water surface profile. Estimates approximate location of hydraulic jumps by calculating:
– Depth
– Distance from control
– Specific energy
– Pressure-plus-momentum

– Pipe Junction module for coupled pressure and open channel flow pressure-plus-momentum analysis using the Thompson equation.

– Normal and critical depth flow factors for trapezoidal, v-ditch, and rectangular channels, which include computations for:
– Velocity
– Flow area
– Flow top-width
– Hydraulic depth
– Pressure-plus-momentum
– Froude number

– Symmetrical street normal depth computation whereby the user "builds" a symmetrical street and specifies the streetflow. Evaluates:
– Split flow
– Flow factors
– Velocity-depth product
– Normal depth
– Flood-width

– Estimates open channel flow pressure-plus-momentum balance for pipeflow junctions.

– Catch Basin analysis and sizing estimation module.

– More than 100 computational features provide the hydraulic engineer with a comprehensive computerized hydraulics modeling package.
