Dry ponds are found in storage element in the LID TTT.

Dry ponds are a storage element in the Treatment Train Tool.

A Dry pond as a storage element (key parameters)
Stage Storage
Name Important to have a unique name, to associate with the subcatchment (harvesting area)
Storage type No removal
Bottom elevation (m) This will be 0 for installations at ground level, but will often be underground. This is of greater importance when the overflow is coupled to another component within a treatment train
Maximum depth (m) Height of the RWH cistern
Lined/unlined Lined
Evaporation factor 0
Curves
The Curves table is designed to accommodate ponds of roughly conical dimensions. Rainwater cistern are usually cuboid or cylindrical in shape, so that the area (m2) will remain the same throughout the depth. The top and bottom dimensions can be placed within the first two rows of the table.
