In InfoSurge Pro, surge protection devices (SPDs)
00:09
can help reduce the magnitude of pressure waves resulting from transients in a pipe network.
00:16
You can create a surge protection device by selecting a node and changing it to an SPD.
00:24
In this exercise, you install a pressure relief valve, and then examine how it impacts surge results.
00:33
To begin, double-click the desired project .aprx file to open ArcGIS Pro.
00:41
Once the project starts, click the InfoWater Pro tab to open the InfoWater Pro ribbon.
00:49
In the Project panel, click Initialize.
00:53
First, assign an SPD to a junction and define its characteristics.
01:00
From the map, select Junction 10.
01:04
From the Model Explorer, click the Surge Protection Device button
01:09
to open the Surge Protection Device Data dialog.
01:13
Expand the Device Type drop-down and select 6: Pressure Relief Valve.
01:20
Then, make sure that both the Inflow and Outflow Resistance values are set to 0.67.
01:29
Set the Opening Pressure to 150 psi.
01:34
Set the External (atmospheric) Pressure to 0 psi.
01:41
Assign a value of 100 psi to the Closing Pressure.
01:46
Set the Opening and Closing Times to 3 and 60 seconds, respectively.
01:53
Leave the Sensing Node ID field blank, in order to use the pressure relief valve as the sensing node.
02:01
Then, click Update to save your changes and close the dialog.
02:08
Now that you have a pressure relief valve installed, you can run a surge analysis.
02:13
From the Model Explorer, click the Run Manager button.
02:18
In the Run Manager dialog, click the Run button.
02:22
When the analysis is complete, click the OK button to close the dialog.
02:29
From the ribbon, View panel, click Report Manager.
02:34
In the Report Manager dialog, click New to open the Output Report/Graph dialog.
02:41
In the Available Output Sources area, select the *Active*:Surge option.
02:48
From the Graph Report tab, pick Surge Node Graph.
02:53
In the Data Scope group box, enable the Selected Element(s) < option, if it is not already.
03:02
Click Open.
03:04
On the map, select Junction 11 to view its pressure profile in the Report Manager dialog.
03:13
Note the minimum, maximum, and average pressures.
03:17
The pressure relief valve only assists with high pressures, but does not mitigate low pressure conditions.

Required for course completion
In InfoSurge Pro, surge protection devices (SPDs) can help reduce the magnitude of pressure waves resulting from transients in a pipe network. This example installs a pressure relief valve and then examines its impact on surge results.
First, assign an SPD to a junction and define its characteristics:
Enter the following values for the pressure relief valve:
With the pressure relief valve installed, run a surge analysis:
Now, view the analysis results in the Report Manager:
Note the minimum, maximum, and average pressures. The pressure relief valve only assists with high pressures, but does not mitigate low pressure conditions.
