Inlet control means that the amount of water the culvert barrel can carry is limited by the culvert entrance. Flow passes through critical depth at the culvert entrance and is supercritical in the barrel. There are several flow profiles possible, HY-8 simulates so-called Type A, B, C, and D conditions as shown below and as described in HDS-5. These profiles are known as Type 1 (A, C) and Type 5 (B, D) within HY-8. The various flow type properties may be found in HY-8 by selecting the Flow Types button from the Culvert Summary Table and are shown below. Because the flow in the barrel is supercritical, outlet losses and friction losses are not reflected in the headwater elevation. The headwater elevation is a function of the entrance size, shape, slope, and culvert type. The computed inlet control headwater elevation is found by accessing the results of scaled physical model tests. The logic for determining what inlet flow control type prevails is shown below (from the original HY-8 help file).
Inlet Control Logic
Determine Applicable Inlet Control Equation
- IF circle or box with IMPROVED INLETS then use INLET equations.
- For Straight (previously called conventional) INLETS
- A. If Q is < Q at .5D, then assume LOW FLOW INLET CONTROL:
- i. calculate CRITICAL DEPTH (DCO)
- ii. calculate Section Properties
- iii. VH = (Q / AC)^2 / 64.4
- iv. IH = DCO * LMULT + (1 + KELOW) * VH * VHCOEF
- IF no Depression THEN IHI = IH + I1E
- For Depression, HF = IH and check head on CREST.
- B. If Q > Q at .5D, but < Q at 3D, then use INLET REGRESSION EQUATIONS.
- C. If Q > Q at 3D, then assume HIGH FLOW INLET CONTROL.
- i. IH = (Q / CDAHI)^2 + .5 * RISE
- ii. IF no Depression THEN IHI = IH + I1E
- For Depression, HF = IH and check head on CREST.
- A. If Q is < Q at .5D, then assume LOW FLOW INLET CONTROL:

Straight Inlet Equations
- For IRREGULAR shape, X = Q / (AC * SQR(RISE))
- IF X <= .5 THEN IH = (A(1) * (X / .5)) * RISE
- ELSE IH = (A(J - 1) + (A(J) - A(J - 1)) * ((X - J + 2) / INC)) * RISE
- For all others shapes, X = Q / (SPAN * SQR(RISE^3)): SR = SR(IC)
- IH = (A + (B + (C + (D + (E + F * X) * X) * X) * X) * X - SR * S0) * RISE
- Headwater elevation (IHI) = IH + I1E if no Depression.
- For Depression, CREST headwater is checked.

- IF HF1 > RISE THEN HF = HF3
- IF HF1 < RISE THEN HF = HF1
- IF HF1 >= HF3 THEN HF = HF1

Outlet Control Procedures That Produce an Inlet Control Profile
STEP
- Compute critical depth (dco)
- Compute normal depth (dno)
- Compute fullflow if nomograph solution assumed "6-FFt or FFc".
- If dno > .95(rise), assume fullflow "6-FFn".
- If dno > dco, assume mild slope (SEE OUTLET.DAT).
- If dno <= dco, assume steep slope.
- A. If twh is >= So(L) + rise, assume fullflow "4-FFt".\
- B. If twh is >= rise, outlet submerged, assume inlet unsubmerged.
- C. If twh is < rise, outlet is unsubmerged, assume inlet unsubmerged.
- i. Assume headwater (oh) = inlet control headwater (ih)
- Calculate S2 curve "1-S2n" for outlet depth.
- If oh >= rise, inlet submerged "5-S2n"
- ii. If twh > headwater, tailwater drowns out jump.
- Calculate M1 curve "3-M1t".
- If culvert flows part full, "7-Mit".
- i. Assume headwater (oh) = inlet control headwater (ih)
