A fire hydrant rating curve shows the relationship between
00:07
residual pressure and the available flow for any hydrant.
00:11
Hydrant curves are often required by
00:13
fire departments responsible for ensuring that a
00:16
specific hydrant can adequately control a
00:18
potential fire demand and maintain minimum pressure
00:22
to begin.
00:23
Double click the desired project dot APR X file to open
00:27
Agis Pro.
00:29
Once the project starts,
00:30
click the info water pro tab to open the info water pro ribbon
00:34
in the project panel, click initialize
00:38
to set up and run a hydrant curve on the info water pro ribbon
00:42
in the analysis panel. Click run
00:45
in the run manager, click the hydrant curve tab
00:49
to set the start time for this simulation.
00:51
Pick select time and then in the pop-up click and
00:54
drag the slider to set the time to 10 hours.
00:58
Click. OK.
01:00
In the target junction ID field enter J 101 198
01:03
as the identifier of the hydrant to be tested.
01:07
You can also use the browse icon beside the
01:09
field to select the junction directly from the map.
01:14
Set the normal hydrant flow to the hydrant's firef flow demand.
01:18
Click run
01:21
the hydrant curve graph opens automatically in the report manager.
01:25
If you are prompted to switch to the most recent output data. Click yes,
01:30
view the graph.
01:32
Any brakes in the curve are caused by a
01:34
change in operation at the specified flow rate.
01:38
When you are finished reviewing the curve, close the report manager.

To set up and run a hydrant curve:
The Hydrant Curve graph opens automatically in the Report Manager.
Any breaks in the curve are caused by a change in operation at the specified flow rate.
