      All, I am currently working on creating an existing system model that has both an elevated storage tank (750,000 GAL with 56.50' diameter) and a stand pipe (10,000 GAL with a 12' diameter). My model is running into an issue where the two tanks are not…

      Background: I am a consultant specializing in water distribution modeling and have been using both WaterGEMS and InfoWater regularly for 9 years. I am therefore, very familiar with the strengths and weaknesses of both platforms. All of these requests…

      Good Morning, I have a really complicated situation, My model has two reservoir's and each reservoir have two pumps, Reservoir 1 designed to produces 4000 GPM (Combined two pumps) Reservoir 2 designed to produces 1850 GPM (Combined two pumps…

      Junos: I just have a small technical followup to Tom's excellent suggestions. If you want to turn any element on/off in the model, you need to use the Controls, which can be edited through Components > Controls in the menu. You'll need to set up…

      Hello, There is no direct way to do this, but if you're creative, you may find a way. For example, you could set up your controls such that when Pump A turns on, it also changes the status of a 'dummy' pipe to closed. The condition to turn it on…

      Hi John: There are a couple of different ways to model this in your system, depending on how much information you have and the behaviour of your pumps. I'm going to assume you're doing extended period simuation modeling, since that's the only…

      Hello Jack, It's technically possible to do this, using Modelbuilder. As you mentioned, there is some complexity to the relationship between conditions, actions and controls, which means this can be quite involved. Basically you would need to Sync…

    • Re: PRV control (activating when pump turns off)

      Mal Sharkey
      Mal Sharkey
      So you have a logical control on the PRVs that says something like "set PRV pressure setting to 105psi when the pump is off"? I think the problem is that the PRV control isn't checked until after the pump goes off - giving you that 0.1hr delay…

      You might want to post a screenshot of your controls, or alternatively send your model to tech support: http://appsnet.bentley.com/srmanager/addcall.aspx If you were able to get the pump controls going, then you should be able to get the pipe…

    • Re: Pump ON and OFF at different levels in Bently Water CAD

      Jesse Dringoli
      Jesse Dringoli
      Hello Marek, Your controls don't work because as soon as the level falls below 302.5 and the pump turns on, it immediately fills above 302.5, triggering the Else statement to turn it off. To see a typical example of the controls you're trying to use…
