all about InfoSewer
The control of odorous gases and the corrosion of sewers are the two most important problems in operating wastewater collection systems. Evaluation of existing or potential odor or corrosion problems, and identification of where such problems will occur is, therefore, highly essential. … Read the rest
List of Physical Components in InfoSewer
InfoSewerH20Map Sewer conceptualizes a sewer collection network as a collection of links connected together at their endpoints, called nodes. The nodes represent manholes, wet-wells, and outlets while the links represent pipes and pumps. The sewer system can be of any topological configuration and can … Read the rest
The Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) module of InfoSewer allows the user to actively link to any external database and import that data into the current InfoSewerH20Map Sewersession. Likewise, the user can also update an external database with InfoSewerH20Map Sewer data.
To initiate the ODBC Exchange, … Read the rest
RDII or Tri Triangular Unit Hydrograph in InfoSewer
The RDII or Rainfall Dependent Infiltration Inflow method in InfoSewer is similar to the RDII or RTK method in InfoSWMM and InfoWorks ICM, but there are some differences. The RTK data for triangles 1, 2, and 3 are defined in the Unit … Read the rest
The Colorado Urban Hydrograph Procedure in InfoSewer
The Colorado Urban Hydrograph Procedure (CUHP) uses the equations and procedures presented in the Urban Drainage Criteria Manual (USDCM) of the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (UDFCD). Shape of the CUHP synthetic unit hydrograph is determined using the following equations that relate … Read the rest

Steady State InfoSewer and H20Map Sewer
The purpose of a sanitary sewer system is to convey wastewater from various origins at various rates of flow. The maximum and minimum flow rates in a single day can vary greatly. The system should be able to carry the maximum rate of flow … Read the rest
Wet Wells in InfoSewer and H20Map Sewer
Wet-wells are nodes with storage capacity that can vary with time during an extended period simulation. The primary input properties for wet wells are:
· The bottom elevation where the wastewater level is assumed to be zero
· The minimum level, i.e., the … Read the rest
Modeling H2S in InfoSWMM
You can model Sulfide in InfoSWMM using the H2S water quality modeling option which uses BOD5 loading at nodes to estimate the S concentration in the nodes and links of the network using constant network parameters for:
If you are using Steady State flow and not EPS Flow you should do the following:
1. Define your Base Flow in either Load1 or Load2 for the loading manhole,
2. Select Peakable Base Flow as the Load Type
3. Define your Alternate Peaking Curve under the Tab Peaking in … Read the rest
