Reduce your model with customizable operations such as data scrubbing, branch trimming, series pipe removal, and parallel pipe removal.

  • Data scrubbing: Automatically remove orphaned nodes and eliminate pipes based on user-defined criteria such as length and diameter.
  • Branch trimming: Remove short pipe segments including dead ends, service connections, and hydrant leads. The branch trimming operation allows you to set the number of trimming levels and automatically transfer the removed demands to the upstream node. Trimming criteria are fully customizable and can include any combination of pipe and junction node removal criteria.
  • Series pipe removal: Automatically eliminate unnecessary pipe segmentation by dissolving interior nodes based on any combination of user-defined pipe and junction conditions. The series pipe removal operation allows you to set the maximum number of removal levels, indicate the dominant pipe criteria, specify hydraulic equivalency, select from four load redistribution strategies, and indicate what to do with minor losses.
  • Parallel pipe removal: Consolidate parallel pipes into one hydraulically equivalent pipe. The parallel pipe removal options allow you to specify the maximum level of pipe removal based on loop sensitivity, set dominant pipe criteria, indicate equivalent pipe methods and minor loss strategies, and define custom criteria for pipe removal.
