The network I am modeling already has the dma's setup and there are flowmeters at the beginning of these dma's. My question is how does one represent the flowmeter in the model?
Hello Christen,
Generally flow meters are not explicitly modeled, you can introduce minor losses if required ,so it can be modeled as a minor loss on a pipe.
However If you need to model a more complex flow vs. headloss relationship, use a GPV node element with GPV headloss curve. Its up to you how to consider that in the model.
Modeling devices and components that are not explicitly available as an element
