LOOK UNDER THE HOOD There is a big difference between a market-ing bullet in a brochure and a feature that you can actually use and apply in practice.Be wary of software claiming true variable-speed pump- ingӔ.Be sure to determine how the candidate model han- dles parallel variable-speed pumps and whether the model truly allows you to mimic the behavior of VSPs in the field.

WHEN DO YOU STOP? The final use of the hydraulic model will determine the level of accuracyrequired during the calibration process.Simple system evaluations do not require the same level of accuracy as does an in-depth water quality analysis. I know I ӑm supposed to calibrate my model continuously, but I dont have the time. It is hard enough to do it every couple of years.Ҕ > Adjust roughness, demand, and pipestatus automatically > The water distribution system for Guayaquil, the largest city in Ecuador faces a significant water supply deficit, interrupted service, low-pressure areas, and...

Calibrating a model and assessing design and rehabilitation strategies are examples of modeling processes that take a huge number of trial and revision cycles, and consequently a lot of time and money if the most recent optimizing techniques are not used.This is why Darwin Calibrator and Darwin Designercommand the most recent technological advances in the high performance Fast Messy Genetic Algorithm (fmGA), one of the most competent genetic-evolutionary computing technologies. A Genetic Algorithm (GA) is a search method thatemulates the theoretical principals of natural evolu- tion and...

here is a trend towardsbuilding sophisticated geospatial system plan- ning tools within water utilities, but for analyses, this level of detail is unim- portant or distracting and the additional size and complexity can hinder productivity. Examples include master planning, system rehabilitation studies, and pump sched- uling.With Skelebrator, model-ers reliably reduce network complexity by automating the reduction of network models, saving precious time and enhancing understanding. > Pressure34.0 psiPressure34.2 psi 45,330Pipes1890Pipes System detail is great, but IӒve got so much data to...

We should have designed a better surge protection system, but our current surge software is impossible to use.Ӕ > nchecked, surges can cause catastrophic damage to pipes and equipment,risk the safety of operators, allow intrusion of dangerous contaminants into the system, and interrupt service to customers. Over time, transients also increase wear and tear on pipes and pumps, leading to premature failure.How can transients be eliminated or controlled? The most cost-effective approach is to perform a transient analysis to locatetrouble spots and determine...
