Transcript
00:04
You can run a firef flow analysis on only a selection of model elements in the domain.
00:09
In this exercise,
00:11
you assign firef flow demands and run a standard
00:13
firef flow analysis only for junctions in the domain.
00:17
These junctions will simulate hydrants in your system
00:21
to begin.
00:21
Double click the desired project dot APR X file to open arc
00:25
GI pro.
00:27
Once the project starts,
00:28
click the info water pro tab to open the info water pro ribbon
00:33
in the project panel, click initialize
00:36
on the info water pro ribbon in the domain panel, click domain manager
00:41
in the domain manager select network as the element source.
00:46
Select all junctions from the dropdown
00:49
and then click add,
00:52
click close to close the domain manager.
00:56
You can now set the firef flow value to test for the selected group of functions
01:00
on the info water pro ribbon in the edit panel, click group editing.
01:05
Make sure that domain is selected in the desired element selection section
01:09
and that firef flow is selected in the element list.
01:12
These should be selected by default
01:15
in the applicable attribute section, set the FIREF flow GPM value to 750
01:20
then click apply,
01:23
click OK to confirm and then close to close the group editing window.
01:28
All junctions in the model now have a firef flow demand.
01:33
Select the area of the map with the junctions. You want to test
01:37
on the info water pro ribbon
01:38
in the domain panel. Click clear domain,
01:43
click enlarge domain and select the area to the lower left of the map.
01:52
Use the reduced domain tool if you pick extra pipes or nodes,
02:01
once the domain is set on the info water pro ribbon edit panel,
02:05
click the select tool to deactivate the domain tools
02:09
run the simulation
02:11
on the info water pro ribbon in the analysis panel, click run
02:16
in the run manager on the firef flow tab enable run firef flow on domain only.
02:22
This restricts the firef flow analysis to junctions currently in
02:25
the domain which is the area you selected previously.
02:29
Click run.
02:32
The Firefly report opens automatically in the report manager.
02:36
If you are prompted to switch to the most recent output data, click yes,
02:41
you can view the report to find answers to your
02:43
firef flow questions such as can firef flows be supplied here
02:48
to answer this question. Look at the residual pressure column,
02:52
right. Click the column header and select sort of sending
02:55
the lowest value is more than the 20 psi residual
02:58
pressure you set in the run manager firef flow tab.
03:02
Therefore you can answer that yes. Firef flows can be supplied here
03:07
when you are finished. Click hide to close the report manager.

You can run a fireflow analysis on only a selection of model elements in the domain. For example, you assign fireflow demands and run a standard fireflow analysis only for junctions in the domain. These junctions simulate hydrants in your system.
To set the fireflow value to test for the selected group of junctions:
All junctions in the model now have a fireflow demand. You can now select the area of the map with the junctions you want to test.
The fireflow analysis is now restricted to junctions currently in the domain, which is the selected area.
The Fireflow report opens automatically in the Report Manager.
The lowest value is more than 20 psi, which is the residual pressure that was set in the Run Manager Fireflow tab. Therefore, fireflows can be supplied to the domain.
