 PIPES++ is a program that does Single Balance or Extended Period Simulations of flow and water quality in a town water supply system.
Components that can be modelled include: Reservoirs; Pipes; Pumping Stations; Minor Head Losses; Check Valves; Reservoir Inlet Control Valves; Various specialised control valves; Pressure Reducing Valves; Pressure Sustaining Valves; Flow Control Valves; Sprinklers.
Pipe flows may be calculated using either the Colebrook White equation or the Hazen Williams equation. You draw the network on screen using lines to represent pipes and pre defined symbols to represent pumps, valves, reservoirs etc. If you already have the pipes drawn in a CAD system (eg Autocad) you can create a DXF file directly from that. Data is entered via dialog boxes, which are accessed by right clicking on the pipe or symbol, and selecting Edit Data from the pop up menu. Extended Period simulations (typically for 24 hours) can be carried out and during the simulation pumps can be started and stopped and valves opened and closed based on control rules which you specify (eg when a reservoir fills, stop a pump; when it falls 2 metres start the pump). Results can be displayed in several ways including: - Detailed results shown on a network diagram at any time during the simulation.
- Trace graphs showing how a value varies with time (eg flow in a pipe, HGL at a node, Water Level in a reservoir).
- Minimum and maximum pressure occurring at each node at any time during the simulation
Water quality analyses can also be carried out to simulate how the concentration of Chlorine, Fluoride or some other chemical varies with time. Chemical injection points can be specified with the chemical concentration specified as data for the duration of the analysis. Trace graphs are available for these results also. The various graphs can be sent to a printer or plotter or file or copied via the Clipboard directly to a word processor (eg Word for Windows) for inclusion in a report. 本部分内容设定了隐藏，需要回复后才能看到
