Urban drainage and collecting storm water systems are still poor in many Brazilian cities. Those systems are projected to provide a flow without inundation. The rational method is generally used to calculate flow rate and pipe diameters. The calculus and technical drawing demanded on project are made using computational tools. UFC8 is a software developed for drawing and calculus of urban drainage systems using an interface with AutoCAD®. On its dimension module, UFC8 calculates the drainage net based on the rational method for the flow rate, while on its modeling module, UFC8 calculates the flow using Saint-Venant equations. A study was made comparing these two methodologies in three different situations: two of them are possible drainage systems and the third one is a fake system. Results show different values of flow rate on a same pipe, depending of the methodology applied. These differences vary from 3% to 40%, depending with the net and diameter.
