All-in-one stormwater management
Stormwater systems can be very complex to model, with flow backups and reversals, surcharged pipes, and more.
OpenFlows CivilStorm is one solution for all your stormwater modeling needs.
What is OpenFlows CivilStorm?
OpenFlows CivilStorm performs analysis of all aspects of stormwater systems: rainfall, runoff, inlet capture and bypass, gravity and pressure piping, ponds, outlet structures, open channels, culverts, and more. Detect system bottlenecks, improve capacity, and limit stormwater flooding, so you can comply with stormwater regulations. Minimize capital investments on your infrastructure with optimized network designs and master plans for your entire system. Better understand surface flood depth and velocity, flood hazard, and inundation times with the new user-friendly 1D/2D hydraulic analysis capability.

One Solution for all Stormwater Modeling
Low Impact Development (LID) Controls
Leverage tools that help evaluate best management practices such as porous pavement, rain gardens, green roofs, vegetated swales, and rain barrels.Flexible Storm and Runoff Calculations
Use a wide range of storm data formats, including a simple table of depth vs. time, methods based on intensity/duration/frequency tables and curves, to special regional methods. For rainfall, you can use synthetic or gauged storm data formats, synthetic rainfall distributions, intensity-duration-frequency curves, and other methods. Runoff calculation methods include SCS and other unit hydrographs, EPA-SWMM runoff, ILSAX, Time-Area, and Rational. - Analyze, Design, and Operate Stormwater Systems

Performs analysis of all aspects of stormwater systems
Analyze Inlet Capacities
Calculate the proportion of stormwater runoff that will enter an inlet versus the proportion that will be carried downstream in a gutter or pond on the road surface. Quickly confirm that the spread of flow in a gutter doesn’t exceed design requirements.Simulate Water Quality
Simulate the generation, inflow, and transportation and treatment of any number of user-defined pollutants, such as total suspended solids or heavy metals.

Choose What is Right for You
One-year license with training
Virtuoso Subscription – A popular choice for small and medium-sized businesses
Get access to software that comes with training – fast! Bentley’s eStore, Virtuosity, offers a convenient way to lease a 12-month license of Bentley software for a low, upfront cost. Every online purchase through Virtuosity comes as a Virtuoso Subscription that includes training and auto-renewals.
With no contract required, it’s easy to get started quickly.
One-time purchase with support
Perpetual License with SELECT
A perpetual license of Bentley software is a one-time purchase, with a yearly maintenance subscription, called SELECT. This includes 24/7/365 technical support, learning resources, and the ability to exchange licenses for other software once a year. With SELECT, you will benefit from:
- License pooling, so you can access your software from multiple computers.
- Access additional Bentley software with Term Licenses, which allow you to pay for what you use without the upfront cost of purchasing a perpetual license.
Annual renewal quotes are delivered directly to your inbox, and our experienced Renewal Representatives are available to answer your questions and guide you through any changes you’d like to make.
