turbine load acceptance followed by load rejection

sir the above case is so important in case of surge protection of tail race tunnel and head race tunnel. Also, now a days most of the hydropower plants, the surge tank has been replaced with SURGE GALLERY (IT IS JUST LIKE LONG PIPE OF HAVING DIFFR...

Graph of mass (real) air flow through an air valve

It would be better if the detailed airflow graph would show the "mass air flow rate" and thus the user can confirm whether real air volume was expelled from the air valve to the atmosphere or not. The current situation in which we watch "momentary...

When a surge relief valve dumps to a reservoir, can an external pressure input option be added to the software?

When a surge relief valve dumps to a reservoir, can an external pressure input option be added to the software? Other softwares for transient analysis have this input.

Fix FCV calculation routine and/or add calculation option

Background info (including Jesse Dringoli's response) can be found here. The Flow Control Valve (FCV) calculations in WaterGEMS currently allows the calculated Cv value to exceed the fully open Cv value. The link to the Forum post above includes m...

Extended node data (Report period) for check valves

A check valve is a fundamental device used in water systems. Having a detailed graph of its closing status, upstream vs. downstream pressure and other parameters will be super useful!. Thank you Tal

Improve Graph Default Interval Increments

Sometimes WaterGEMS seems to have the most peculiar default intervals on graphs on the y-axis. I regularly see intervals of 0.63, 1.25,12.5, and 62.50. All of these tend to obscure the values I actually care about. I would much rather see interval...

Options for changing the color of the line

Sometimes it is necessary to mark territory in the network when presenting simulation results to colleagues. Currently, the ability to draw is only assigned with black color and standard line thickness.

Report Period graphs for SAV + SRV

Hi Having a dedicated Report Period of discharge flow + volume and valve's opening degree graphs, will be very beneficial as I'm using SAVs quite often as a solution, and it's very popular in many territories. Thank you Tal

Customer Meter Associated Element - Physical Alternative as Default, not Demand Alternative

Currently it is extremely tedious to change the Associated Element of a Customer Meter Model Element. An unfortunate design choice during Customer Meter implementation into WaterCAD was that within the WaterCAD Schema this Attribute was assigned t...

Max Velocity constraint variable according to pipe diameter

In Portugal, as in several countries for where we work, maximum flow velocity in each pipe depends on its diameter. So that, as happens in SewerGEMS, velocity design constraint should be defined for each diameter, and should be a property of each ...
