Stormwater & Wastewater Collection Systems

Confidently make collection system decisions

Design real-time controls, assess resilience solutions and manage rainfall-dependent inflow and infiltration (RDI) for both stormwater and wastewater collection systems.

Almost endless options for your collection systems

From modelling surface runoff and flows to water quality and sediment transport, MIKE+ has all the features and functions to help you solve even the most complex collection system issues.

Simulate pipe and channel network flows

For both short and long-term collection system management, use MIKE+ to run simulations of subcritical and supercritical flow conditions in partial, full and pressurised pipe networks.

Simulate every aspect of your collection system using the MIKE1D Pipeflow module, including:

Standard and flexible cross-sections
Circular manholes
Retention basins
Soakaways
Overflow weirs
Orifices
Pumps
Flow regulators
Storm water inlets
Junctions
Valves

Accurately assess water quality and impacts

Make advanced water quality assessments by combining the MIKE1D Pipeflow module with the Transport and MIKE+ ECO lab modules. Used together, you can conduct a city-wide network simulation of ecological, biological and chemical water processes.

Identify the cause and location of hydrogen sulfide formation
Test various mitigation options
Model stormwater quality
Evaluate LIDs treatment efficiency
Assess the impact of pollutant transport on rivers, lakes, and surfaces

Model stormwater and wastewater systems

Plan, design, and analyse your stormwater, sanitary and combined systems with full access to the MIKE+ SWMM module. Evaluate low impact development designs, mitigation options and pipe capacity to ensure a high standard of service and cost-effectiveness.

Create dynamic models for:

Pipes, open channels, storage units and more
Stormwater runoff from subcatchments including LIDS
Stormwater routing by kinematic wave method
Infiltration by either the Horton or the Green-Ampt methods
Rainfall dependent inflow based on RTK method
Vertical movement of water infiltrating sub-surface groundwater zones

Evaluate low impact development (LID) initiatives

We all know stormwater can be managed more sustainably, but do you know which LID practice to pursue for your collection system? With MIKE+, you can model different LID practices at both the hydrological screening and detailed hydraulic level to evaluate their effects before making any investment.

Model and simulate LID practices including:

Bioretention cells
Rain gardens
Green roofs
Rainwater barrels
Permeable pavements
Infiltrations trenches
Soakaways

Easily connect collection systems and rivers

Most cities are built near rivers and are affected by them. With MIKE+’s transversal modules, you can model collection systems and river networks together to better understand their relationships.

With such insights, you’ll be able to:

Increase city resilience and liveability
Ensure sustainable stormwater management
Assess the impact of pollutant build-up and washoff
Make long-term impact analyses
Simulate water quality processes and treatment options
Accurately represent the outflow of a river or pipe
Include the propogation of pollutants in your models

Document emergency storage requirements

With the new Pump Emergency Storage tool, you can easily calculate available emergency storage and time in the event of a pump failure – before reaching the alarm level or having a sewer overflow occur.

This powerful tool also enables you to:

Stop upstream flows of the failed pump
Locate the lowerst overflow level for each pumping station
Set your own pump failure time and custom alarm levels

The integrated water modelling platform

Powerful alone. Better together.

MIKE+ offers a full suite of integrated software solutions for water systems with a flexible and scalable model manager layer at its core. The MIKE+ platform allows you to plug and play with different modules to customise water management solutions. They’re powerful alone – but even better when used together.

Plus, some modules are transversal, so you can use them across your collection systems, rivers and flooding challenges. That’s the power of an integrated water modelling platform.
