When you obtain an InfoSurge license, the InfoSurge toolbar is added to the Model Explorer in InfoWater Pro.
00:11
This toolbar is the primary InfoSurge user interface.
00:16
Each InfoSurge tool has a specific function and is made active when the proper element type is selected.
00:23
Toolbar buttons that are grayed out do not apply to the selected element.
00:28
Clicking the Identify Surge Elements button displays a drop-down list of options for adding certain surge elements to a domain.
00:37
Select Auxiliary Calculator to select from a list of utility surge calculators
00:43
to assist you in finding the data needed to run a surge analysis.
00:47
The Demand Change button is only active when a junction is selected in the Attribute Browser.
00:53
Clicking it opens the Junction Demand Change Data dialog,
00:58
where you can select a curve to change demand at a node during the surge simulation.
01:03
The Pump Operation Change button is only active when a pump is selected in the Attribute Browser.
01:10
It opens a dialog used to describe the pump operational changes during transient analysis.
01:18
Click AV (TCV) Operation Change button when an active valve (AV) or a throttle control valve (TCV) is selected in the Attribute Browser.
01:31
The resulting dialog allows you to specify the curve that describes the valve stem position with respect to time.
01:39
The Pipe Wave Speed button is only active when a pipe is selected in the Attribute Browser.
01:45
Clicking it opens the Pipe Surge Data dialog, where you can enter or change the pipe wave speed for individual pipes.
01:54
The Pump Surge Data button is only active when a pump is selected in the Attribute Browser.
02:00
Click it to open the Pump/Turbine Surge Data dialog, where you can set the properties of the pump to be used in the surge analysis.
02:09
The AV Surge Data button is only active when a throttle control valve (TCV) is selected in the Attribute Browser.
02:18
It opens the Active Valve Data dialog, which is used to specify the valve element as an active valve in the surge analysis,
02:26
and to specify the bypass line and the check valve specifications if required.
02:33
The Surge Protection Device button is only active when a junction is selected in the Attribute Browser.
02:40
The resulting dialog allows you to choose the type of surge protection device you wish to turn the junction node into.
