Computer modeling is a water utility's most powerful tool for managing and operating a water distribution system. This 4th edition ofM32 Computer Modeling of Water Distribution Systems, describes how to build accurate water distribution system models, and use models to manage assets and solve hydraulic and water quality problems.
The manual discusses how to use models to:
Predict pressures and flows
Evaluate layouts and designs
Solve operating problems
Investigate control schemes
Size components
Develop new or improve existing flushing programs
Prioritize asset maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement efforts
Calculate energy costs
Improve water quality
This edition has been updated to reflect significant changes in computer modeling and the water industry. It has more information on asset management, and new chapters on model maintenance and advanced modeling applications (e.g., system reliability and real-time modeling).
