Collection system models like OpenFlows SewerGEMS are a powerful tool in their toolbox to assess the problem and develop solutions. The requirement is to develop a method to produce hydrographs based on a simple and reproduceable approach using data that are readily available. The most successful methods can reproduce the total quantity of I&I, the time to peak and the duration of the recession limb of the hydrograph.
To maintain adequate self-cleaning velocity, you need smaller pipes, which means you need to pump. By varying the diameter in model runs, you can look at the effect of trading off velocity vs. head loss.
A key input to any model with pumps is some form of pump head curve showing flow vs. pump head. Given the curve, the model can tell the user the exact point on the pump curve at which the pump will operate.
One of the most common questions we get from our WaterGEMS/WaterCAD users is how to model the connection between a proposed land development and the water distribution system supplying it.
These days, I get involved in a lot of discussions about “digital twins”. One of the most common questions is, “What is a digital twin?” With so many people talking about this, you would think that by now there would be a clear definition. Several organizations have written definitions. I sit on an AWWA Committee whose mission is partly to come up with a definition. So far, we haven’t come up with the perfect definition, and we probably won’t.
SewerGEMS tiene la capacidad de dimensionar conductos, establecer elevaciones de plantilla (invert elevations), determinar el tamaño de las captaciones, así como generar un diseño sanitario/pluvial automáticamente, al mismo tiempo que cumple con las restricciones especificadas por el usuario en el diseño automatizado.
Simulating low pressure in your hydraulic model can identify/confirm the cause of the problem and point you to the right solution.
SewerGEMS é capaz de dimensionar automaticamente tubos, bueiros e estruturas hidráulicas além de determinar cotas de fundo. Além de ser capaz de dimensionsionar atendendo diversas restrições definidas pelos usuários durante o dimensionamento automatizado, como faixas permitidas de inclinação, velocidade recobrimento e tensão trativa.
Primeiramente, o WaterGEMS é uma aplicação para modelagem hidráulica, com ambiente e interface amigáveeis. É capaz de analisar, dimensionar e otimizar redes de abastecimento de água. Neste artigo nós vamos conhecer melhor a ferramenta Darwin Designer do WaterGEMS. O WaterGEMS possuí uma capacidade superior para:
