Introducing network models

A network model, also referred to as simply a “model,” is comprised of all the digital information that represents a pressurized water distribution system. These digital representations are used to simulate different scenarios, such as large-scale hydraulics.

• In InfoWorks WS Pro, the model is a combination of:
• a network
• a control
• a demand diagram file
• A model can represent an entire supply area or only a subset of an area.
• Network models can be calibrated to represent a particular day or scenario, such as average, peak, or future demand.
• When a model simulation runs, the results depict data, such as flow and pressure. Results can be visualized on a map, as tables, grids, or graphs. The results can also be used to run statistical queries.
