WS pro demand area analysis provides data that allows users to review
00:09
the current demand for water and project future potential demand areas.
00:14
After generating demand areas from area codes with the demand area grid open,
00:19
you can view and edit parameters for each demand area
00:23
right, click the demand area 35 and select properties.
00:27
The property's dialogue for the specific demand area displays
00:31
open the parameters tab
00:34
from the identification group. You can view the demand area id or the polygon id.
00:39
If it applies
00:41
from the totals group, read only values display
00:44
length of mains displays a read only value calculated from
00:48
the total length of mains in the demand area.
00:51
Total inflows displays a read only value calculated for 24 hours from the live data.
00:57
Starting from the calibration start time
00:60
total outflows displays the value of the outflow from the demand
01:03
area over 24 hours starting from the calibration start time.
01:08
Net inflow is the value of net inflow into the demand
01:11
area and is calculated by subtracting total inflows from total outflows
01:17
in the management group. Notice the A ZNP node or average zone night pressure node.
01:24
This field displays the node with an elevation closest to
01:27
the average elevation of all nodes in the demand area.
01:30
Or if customer points are available,
01:33
it displays the node with the nearest elevation
01:35
to the average elevation of all customer points.
01:39
The A
01:40
and P value is calculated from either simulation results or live data
01:44
over the time interval between the night flow minimum start and end times
01:49
unp profile.
01:50
Demand displays the demand diagram category for the selected demand area.
01:55
This category profile can be updated or created at the end of the flow balance
02:01
demand interpolation displays the point in each
02:04
time step where demand is calculated.
02:06
And by default, it is set to middle
02:09
leakage profile displays the name of the demand diagram
02:13
category for the selected demand area which represents leakage
02:17
values from this category will be used in the flow balance calculations.
02:22
Leakage application displays the method used to
02:25
distribute leakage consumption across the demand area.
02:29
You can choose from four options.
02:31
Setting A two length of pipe applies leakage to nodes
02:34
based on the length of pipe associated with each node
02:38
unp profile.
02:39
Demand divides leakage equally between all nodes with
02:42
the demand category specified in the unp profile.
02:45
Demand field.
02:47
Total connections calculates leakage at nodes based on the number of connections.
02:51
A node has
02:53
calibration start displays the start date and time for the 24 hour
02:57
period over which the demand area analysis calculations will be carried out
03:02
by default. This is set to the control start time.
03:06
Demand area parameters offer a robust way to
03:09
configure and review information for specific demand areas.
