In this study, we developed a program for detention pond sizing based on Excel in order to improve user convenience. The program includes a function for the derivation of flood hydrograph that was embodied by using the rational method hydrograph for connecting the design of the stormwater pipe. The design method of a permeable detention pond that is a kind of low impact development (LID) technique was also implemented. In addition, the operation of the program was found to be stable, and various discharge structures such as weir, pump, and pipe could be easily conducted using the engine of the stormwater management model (SWMM). The developed detention pond sizing program was applied to the actual design. Subsequently, similar results were derived by comparing with the actual design, and it was found that the program was appropriate.

The study presented the application of Stormwater Management Model (SWMM) in determining the optimal physical design properties of an established low impact development (LID) system treating road runoff. The calibration of the model was based on monitored storm events occurring from May 2010 to July 2013. It was found that the total suspended solids was highly correlated with stormwater runoff volume and dominant heavy metal constituents in stormwater runoff, such lead, zinc and copper, with a Pearson correlation coefficient ranging from 0.88 to 0.95 (P < 0.05). Reducing the original ratio of the storage volume to surface area (SV/SA) of the facility and depth by 25% could match the satisfactory performance efficiency achieved in the original design. The smaller SV/SA and depth would mean a less costly system, signifying the importance of optimization in designing LID systems.

Stormwater quality modeling with the use of Stormwater Management Model (SWMM) is presented. The model has been calibrated on the basis of measurements of flow and stormwater quality performed on a real catchment in Łódź, Poland. Calibrated model parameters and the correlations between the quality indexes are given. This will allow application of the model to other urban catchments equipped with storm drainage systems.
