Simple Detention 4
Step3: Defining a control structure

At this point, lets take a moment and save the project. Select the File/SaveAS menu
from the menu bar and navigate to an appropriate temporary directory. Save the project
as Tutorial1.wwk
|
Lets repeat the process and create a discharge structure. Expose the PROTOTYPE record
in the Discharge category and right mouse click on it. Immediately select the
New Control button and enter Orif as the id. Press
OK.

|

Enter the data shown and proceed to the next MOrif tab.
|

Enter the data shown and press the OK button. We don't need to enter anything else
because we want the program to size the orifice structure for us.
|
Step 4: Creating an RLPool Node
|
This next step is perhaps the most unanticipated step in the whole process. We need
to revisit the Node category to create another Node. This Node will be of type
RLPool. What the program wants is a single record that full describes
the pond. In this case it will be the RLPool Node. It is used to tell the program
that this pond consists of a Trap node for storage and a Orif
control for discharge.
|
|
In the Node category of the TreeView, once again, right click on the PROTOTYPE record
and immediately press the New Node button. Change the name of the autolabel to
Pond and press the OK button.
Make the changes as shown above.
|
|
|
Select the Level Pool tab and identify the Trap
and Orif as the storage and discharge elements for this pond. Press
the Close button when you are finished. |
