A demand area analysis provides data that allows users to review
00:10
the current demand for water and project future potential demand areas.
00:15
After generating demand areas from area codes with the demand area grid open,
00:20
you can specify minimum knife flow parameters
00:22
and view a summary of the demand analysis
00:25
from the grid right, click demand area 35 and select properties.
00:31
The demand area 35 dialog box appears which
00:34
contains the properties for this specific demand area
00:38
open the calculation tab
00:41
from here, you can configure the NFM or night flow minimum time.
00:47
The default is set to zero minutes.
00:50
You can also configure the N FM and time.
00:54
The default for this is five minutes.
00:57
The measurement period is the time interval over
00:59
which the minimum night flow will be calculated.
01:02
The default is 60 minutes
01:05
from the multiplier field.
01:07
A sampling duration correction factor allows for changes
01:10
to the minimum night flow measurement period.
01:12
The default value for this is one.
01:15
The minimum night flow time displays the time at which minimum night flow occurs.
01:21
The night
01:21
use field displays the allowance for the unp
01:24
profiled demand used in the leakage calculations.
01:28
You can also review several other data points from the table.
01:32
These include the measurement period,
01:34
start and end times for minimum night flow and the
01:37
adjusted average of minimum night flow for the measurement period.
01:40
There is also a count of allocated unp profiled demand properties.
01:45
The current average specific consumption
01:47
and the calculated average specific consumption for the allocated properties
01:53
demand for known profiles displays the total demand
01:56
for all demand categories used in the demand
01:59
area that are not described as leakage profile
02:02
or unp profile demand from the parameters tab
02:06
unaccounted for water displays a calculated leakage
02:09
and the leakage profile factor is the average
02:12
factor taken from the demand diagram for
02:14
the leakage category over the measurement period.
02:18
Clicking report generates a report containing
02:21
summary tables of demand area statistics,
02:23
demand category information
02:25
and graphs of demand profile and flow balance.
02:29
The report can either be copied and then pasted
02:32
to another application or saved as an html file.
02:37
The report will show all valid results.
02:39
Once the demand diagrams and networks have been updated,
02:44
the ability to review demand area analysis calculations
02:47
ensures accurate current and future demand needs.

In InfoWorks WS Pro, a demand area analysis provides data that allows users to review the current demand for water and project future potential demand areas.
To specify Minimum Night Flow parameters and view a summary of the Demand Analysis:
To generate a report containing summary tables of Demand Area Statistics, Demand Category information, and graphs of Demand Profile and Flow Balance:
The report can either be copied and pasted to another application or saved as an HTML file.
To save the report as an HTML file:
In the Demand Area Report dialog box, the file path appears.
The report shows all valid results once the demand diagrams and networks have been updated.
