Watercad - Looped System Modeling
Mark Breen
over 15 years ago
I have a situation where a site is located at the intersection of two streets. There are public mains in both streets and we are examining what would be the result if both mains were tapped. We have hydrant flow tests for hydrants on both streets. Typically only one hydrant is used and converted to a pump to model the system. Would the model be any more accurate if both hydrants were modeled as pumps. The thought here is that water is coming from at least two sources (directions). Modeling back to the water source (water plant) just isn't an option. Any thoughts on this?
