Dear Bentley;
Can I make water hammer analysis for a distribution network which has no tanks or reservoirs (it has junctions only with fixed demand) after the pump station. in case of yes we can do it using Bentley hammer, is there any difference between doing hammer analysis for distribution network with junctions only? than doing of the hammer analysis for transmission pipelines with tanks and reservoirs?.
another question. is there any command to split one pipe into number of pipes with equal spacing for example I have one pipe with length of 1000 m and I need to create junctions on this pipe at equal spacing of 50 m.
Regards

Sayed, If you think about it, you need a tank or reservoir both physically and mathematically. Physically, there needs to be some source of water. Mathematically, there needs to be a place to start the hydraulic grade line; otherwise the HGL just floats in space. To split a pipe with a junction, just place a junction along a pipe. The software will ask if you want to split the pipe. Just say yes. Tom
