Thank you Lonnie,

I finally got it run correctly.

I am finding the height of water flowing over the weir higher than originally anticipated based on hand calculations, roughly 100mm higher, over a 85.5m long weir that appears quite high. I ended up using the optimising tool so Hec-Ras calculated the actual flow leaving over the weir.

When I change storage area sizes it actually has zero change on the WS which seems very strange, I have gone to extremes to change the storage areas. Could there be a reason for this.

I entered the Storage area elevations for the Process water dam as the height that is constant in the dam and for the storage area that the reach enters into I set as the ground level in the storage area. Is that correct.

Apologise for all the questions I am really new to all of these functions in Hec-Ras.

Thank you again

Apologise I have a question that is possibly going to sound very stupid, but how can you connect the end of the reach to the storage area at the end, the only was to connect the reach to the storage area is laterally, can you finish a reach in a storage area.

Thank you for that I am trying to add a small storage area equivalent to the drive in assess to the channel.

Another question is what are the units for the storage area, maybe this could be why my model is not working. My view does not tell me the correct units, I have tried to research but cannot find it.
