Hello dear all,
I noticed that the Highlighted station Flow RATE Doesn't match the Valve callout after sizing in one of my irrigation plans..

Is there any explanation for this?

Thanks ,

Nibal,

You are correct, the value reported by Highlight Station is incorrect. This has been fixed, and will be part of an update posting momentarily.
We are in the midst of updating all irrigation code to work with native metric units, instead of translating from GPM. It was just a small oversight with Highlight Station in regards to when it translated legacy GPM values to l/min.

Hi Nibal and anyone else coming to this post, Jesse with Land F/X here. We are tracking a bug involving flow calculations for drip areas inside of drip areas on the same valve zone. We are working on a fix, it will not be released in this Friday's (06/23/23) update but is being addressed as quickly as possible. We encourage anyone else who experiences an issue like Nibal's and that sees this post to submit a technical support ticket for us to review.

Good afternoon all,
Please I have the same problem in a plan am working on.

Highlighted station flow(124 L/M) is different from the size window flow(74 L/M)..
I just sent a support ticket.


Can you advice please?

Hi Jake,

I've just noticed that The HIGHLIGHT tool gives the flow rate in l/m unit(THINK THIS MEANT TO BE IN GPM)

but the Valve Callout & valve attribute seems to show the flow rate in GPM unit.(THINK THIS MEANT TO BE IN L/M)

For Example:

Valve No. 2D in my irrigation plan shows
4.98 l/m in the HIGHLIGHT tool(THIS MAY MEANT TO BE 4.98 GPM)

While
18.8 "GPM" in the Valve Callout(THIS MAY MEANT TO BE 18.8 L/M)



if we do this equation:

4.98 GPM * 3.7854 = 18.8 lpm


Now if this thinking is right?

Why does this happen?

Nibal,
Have you tried going through this article?
Flow Rate (GPM) Discrepancy Between Size Lateral Pipes Dialog Box and Circuiting or Highlight Station Tool

Otherwise, you will need to send in your files for us the know better what might be going on.
