Calculation times

Calculation times  tap is Under the properties. 

First of all what is a time-step? When we say 72 hours duration and consider 0.25 hours  time-step  what does it mean?

Best regards

  • Ramin, 

    A time step (a.k.a hydraulic time step) is the length of time the hydraulic solver uses when the calculating the network equation for the given network. In the example you have listed above the duration of the simulation is 72 hours and the hydraulic solver will use 15 minutes as the time step to perform solving the network hydraulic problem.
