Real-Time Data Connection

Managing data in modeling projects can generally be a cumbersome task. Adding comparison data to your project adds further complexity, and requires you to keep track of data files and import them into your output graphs each time you need them. With H2OMAP Water's new Real-Time Data Connection, you can easily allocate recorded time-series data to junctions, tanks or pipes.

When using the Graph Manager, you can then call up pressure, head or flow data against a single element (if it is available), and view a specific period of data against your simulation results. This feature is most useful when calibrating an EPS model, and will enhance your overall use of H2OMAP Water's dynamic modeling capabilities.

Hydraulic Modeling Capabilities

H2OMAP Water provides unparalleled network analysis and simulation capabilities for performing a wide range of essential modeling tasks. It utilizes a full-featured, state-of-the-art hydraulic computational engine that includes the following capabilities:
•  places no limit on the size of the network and number of components that can be analyzed (unlimited link version)
•  supports both English and metric (Standard International) units
•  analyzes steady-state and extended period simulations
•  computes friction headloss using the Hazen-Williams, Darcy-Weisbach, or Chezy-Manning formulas
•  includes minor (local) head losses for bends, meters, fittings, etc.
•  models constant or variable speed pumps
•  models a fixed pressure pump (FPP) that automatically adjusts its speed to maintain a user specified target pressure (or head) anywhere in the system
•  models turbines and totalizing flow meters
•  calculates Net Positive Suction Head requirements (available NPSH, required NPSH, and cavitation index) to ensure cavitation free operation
•  determines system head curves and fire hydrant rating curves
•  calculates available and design fire flows at minimum residual pressures
•  computes pumping energy and cost based on variable electricity and demand charges
•  accommodates various types of static and dynamic control valves including shutoff, check, float, pressure reducing, pressure sustaining, dual pressure regulating (maintain downstream and upstream pressures), pressure breaker, vacuum breaker, motorized throttled, general purpose, flow control, and reduced pressure backflow prevention valves
•  allows single and multiple inlet/outlet storage tanks to have any shape (i.e., diameter can vary with height)
•  models constant and variable head reservoirs
•  considers multiple demand categories at nodes, each with its own pattern of time variation
•  models pressure-dependent demand issuing from emitters (sprinkler heads)
•  automatically carries out pressure-demand analysis to compute the percentage (%) of demand supplied to each node (ratio of actual demand vs specified demand)
•  tracks flow reversals for pipe flushing
•  determines pipe sequences for unidirectional flushing
•  simulates leakage in a pipe
•  specifies system operation based on both simple node pressure, tank level, link flow, or timer controls and on complex rule-based controls
•  provides on-line SCADA interface with alarms
   
Water Quality Modeling Capabilities

H2OMAP Water provides fast, comprehensive and accurate dynamic water quality computations. It:
•  tracks the movement of a non-reactive tracer material (e.g., fluoride) through the network over time
•  models the movement and fate of a reactive material as it grows (e.g., a disinfection by-product) or decays (e.g., chlorine residual) with time
•  calculates the age of water throughout a network
•  computes the percent of flow from a given node reaching all other nodes over time
•  analyzes kinetic reactions both in the bulk flow and at the pipe wall
•  incorporates nth order kinetics to model reactions in the bulk flow
•  uses zero or first order kinetics to model reactions at the pipe wall
•  accounts for mass transfer limitations when modeling pipe wall reactions
•  allows growth or decay reactions to proceed up to a limiting concentration
•  employs global reaction rate coefficients that can be modified on a pipe-by-pipe basis
•  permits wall reaction rate coefficients to be correlated to pipe roughness
•  allows for time-varying concentration or mass inputs at any location in the network
• 

models storage tanks as being either complete mix, plug flow, or two-compartment reactors

   

H2OMAP Water gives you the power to streamline and automate your water distribution management activities with a complete range of advanced, easy-to-use network modeling functions all within a true GIS environment.

Multi-Level Inheritance Scenario Manager With Active Topology Alternative

H2OMAP Water’s comprehensive tree-type scenario manager gives you the power to make capital improvement decisions with pinpoint accuracy. Its unique facility manager with advanced Active Topology Alternative lets you maintain a single model of your water system while quickly developing and evaluating an array of modeling alternatives. Every change you make cascades through the entire set of projects in an easy-to-use, tree-like structure, allowing you to switch between scenarios, merge models, and compare results instantly giving you a clear illustration of how your system will react to different conditions and planning horizons.

Compare Scenarios

Do you wish to track what differences there are between scenarios? Do you ever wonder if you have correctly transferred information from one scenario to the other? H2OMAP's new Scenario Comparison feature allows you to compare any two scenarios for potential differences. When comparing the scenarios, three sets of results are presented:

•  Data that is present in the first scenario, but not in the second
•  Data that is present in the second scenario, but not in the first
•  Common data elements with different data values (ie. a pipe diameter that is different between the two scenarios)
   
The results of the comparison are presented in a new data viewer that displays the results for easy reference. However, if there are differences that are unwanted, you can use the Selection Set facility to save the locations to review them at a later time. This will provide assurance to users that information between scenarios differs as intended, and that there are no unexpected anomalies within any model's scenarios.
