Is it possible to automatically allocate demands based on pipe length?For example let's say the total demand in the Network (Steady StateAnalysis) is 500 L/s and total length of pipe in the network is 5000 m.So, the unit demand per meter of pipe length is 0.1 L/s/m. So, if pipeis 100 m, its demand contribution is 0.1 * 100 = 10 L/s and the twoadjacent nodes will have 5 L/s each. In some calculations pipes with nohabitations on either side are not considered in demand contribution.Product: WaterGEMS, WaterCADVersion: 08.11.03.19Area: Data Input/Model Creation, Problem ID#: 82685, GENERALINFORMATION
Yes - the Unit Line method in Loadbuilder (Tools > Loadbuilder) can beused to allocate demands based on total demand and pipe length. For moreinformation, see the Help topic entitled "Allocating Demands usingLoadBuilder", or the attached document.
