Overview:

1 - Introduction
2 - Demonstration in HAMMER and WaterGEMS: negative pressures due to transients lead to the entrance of a contaminant in the system.
3 - Demonstration in WaterGEMS: flushing of the contaminated water.
4 - Demonstration in HAMMER: addressing of the surge problem by adding a hydro-pneumatic tank.
5 - Conclusion and Q&A

Summary: 

Watch how HAMMER and WaterGEMS/WaterCAD can help engineers be more responsive to emergencies and customer complaints.

This video shows the simulation of negative pressure problems and resulting contamination. It also shows the selection of the best operational strategies to address these problems in the short and long terms.

What you can learn:
  • Integrate your water modeling (WaterGEMS/WaterCAD) and transient analysis (HAMMER) work.
  • Detect the cause of potential problems and simulate their effects in the water system: in this case, an odor problem is reported in a specific region of the water network.
  • Select a short-term solution: in this case, the contaminated water is flushed.
  • Select a long-term solution: in this case, a hydro-pneumatic tank is installed to suppress the transient.
