A template for the generation of the UKWIR Inlet Curve can be downloaded from [https://downloads.tuflow.com/Other/Inlet_Spreadsheets/Inlet%20Curve%20Capture%20tool%20v4.xlsx here]. The template determines both Subcritical Head-Discharge and Supercritical Head-Discharge relationships obtained from the Modelling Sewer Inlet Capacity Restrictions Report based on user input values of water depth (in metres). Two sets of curves can be generated, curves based on default parameters, and those based on user-defined parameters. Note, the report is not clear what inlet capacity cap should be applied, so these are not applied within the spreadsheet currently. However, the user can edit the resulting Head-Discharge relationship to apply a required cap on the inlet capacity.
 
== How to Translate On-Grade Approach Flow / Pit Capture Flow Curves to Depth / Discharge Curves for use in TUFLOW ==
Manning's equation calculations can be used to convert on-grade approach flow information to a water depth at the pit. ARR 2019 Guidelines (Section 5.6.1, Chapter 5, Book 9) recommends the use of the modified Mannings equation, the Izzard's equation, for gutter and roadway flow. <br>
 
After manually calculating the depth to flow relationship the user simply needs to associate these water depth values with the pit capture flow information typically included in on grade pit inlet curve datasets.
