Problem
Why is the flow reported at an outfall node higher than expected?
[Problem ID#: 39297]
Solution
This is because the outfall nodes themselves in this case are not loaded into the calculation engine, so the flow reported at the outfall node is actually the total pond inflow. If multiple outfalls discharge into the same pond, or if catchments discharge directly into the pond in addition to the outfall in question, the flow reported at the outfall will be greater than you might expect. to See the flow contributing from that outfall only, look at the flow in the upstream link element (pond outlet or conduit).
