    Hi Gustavo, Ok, this type of issue can indeed occur when the solver encounter extreme conditions which can be due to unusual model input. It may be a combination of the very small orifice size, small tank diameter, and possibly other parameters. It…

    Hi Gustavo, why do you provide 2 surge tanks? do you really need that? why the air valves (air inflow diameter) and (air outflow diameter) has the same values? do you need an air valve near the reservoir? is the reservoir with 731m presenting…

    Hello Gustavo, As suggested by Jesse in his reply, the problem here is with small surge tank diameter, in your case diameter is 0.1 m i.e. 100 mm, is that correct diameter ? If you change the diameter of surge tanks to say 0.5 m or 1 m, model runs fine…

    Hello Gustavo, You would want to make sure your system is modeled as accurately as possible (and that the model is calibrated). The reason for this is that you want to make sure that the initial conditions at the start of the transient simulation is…

    Gustavo Montero said: Now I am realizing that it drains into a secundary distribution storage tank that it is open to atmosphere preasure. Are you saying that the 4" discharges water to the atmosphere, which then spills into a tank? If so, the D2A approach…
