Examples of water supply networks
Below is an example of a water supply network that can be created in the program, showing the layout of the components and the options available for adding them to the model:
Water supply infrastructure for a housing development
- General supply node (from "Nodes", "New").
- Water supply points for homes, green spaces and/or hydrants (from "Nodes", "New").
- Spans (from "Sections", "New").
In this case, a loadcase is defined for domestic water consumption, another for water consumption associated with green spaces, and a further one for each of the hydrants under consideration.
In addition, the following combinations are defined, with the indicated percentage of consumption for each loadcase:
- First scenario: 100% residential consumption
- Second combination: 80% residential consumption, 100% green space consumption
- Third combination and subsequent ones: 50% domestic consumption, 100% consumption from two selected hydrants
