Transcript
00:03
When using InfoSurge Pro, it is important to properly set the model input units and hydraulic properties,
00:09
including the headloss equation method, before running a simulation.
00:14
From the Model Explorer window, Operation tab, expand Simulation Options.
00:19
Double-click BASE Simulation Options.
00:23
From the Simulation Options dialog, select the General tab.
00:27
In the Hydraulics section, for this example, expand the Flow Unit drop-down and select Gallons/Minute.
00:34
This sets your input data, such as elevations and diameters, to US imperial units.
00:40
These flow units are applied to link flows and nodal demands.
00:44
Next, expand the Pressure Unit drop-down and select PSI.
00:49
Finally, in the Headloss Equation drop-down, select the Hazen-Williams headloss formula for hydraulic analysis.
00:57
This choice of equation also determines how the roughness attribute of pipes is interpreted.
01:02
Click OK to close the dialog.
01:05
These options are saved as a permanent part of the project.
