WaterGEMS also supports pumping patterns. Main aim of this research is to carry out hydraulic modelling of water distribution network using GIS and reducing the leakage in the pressure zones in saving the time and to minimize the expenditure towards the maintenance. WaterGEMS can directly use a VSP pump with a pressure setting which will remove identifying storing and managing pump patterns. The results of the simulation model shows drastic change in the demands resulting in consequences like back-flow, high pressure zone and negative pressure leading to the leakage of pipes making more investment towards the installation and maintenance cost. The behavior of air valves can be best viewed using a profile view. A value less than the vapor pressure indicates that no flow will occur. Here we tried to characterize the size of pipes with the different diameters of pipes used in the network. WaterGEMS/CAD provides a warning message if the pressure drops below zero and a more severe warning when it drops below the vapor pressure of the fluid (32 ft, 9.8 m for water). Geographical information system is an effective tool for decision support using ArcGIS and Water-gems software.
Units for minor losses are in length, such as feet or meters, the same as any of the three types of head. Minor losses are directly related to the velocity head of a pipe, meaning that the higher the velocity head there is, the greater the losses will be. Creating a simulation model of a real time water distribution network with the account of the pressure and elevation to analyze the flow distribution between the nodes and demand in the network. are elevation head, pressure head, and velocity head. Visually correlate zones of high transient pressures with pipe-burst maps.
Easily pinpoint areas of negative pressure, which may cause the ingress of contaminants. 1-4 The following formula can be used to calculate the change in diameter of a pipe due to an increase in internal pressure P: D: diameter of pipe m e: thickness of pipe m. Enlarge Image Reporting and Result Presentation Color mapping:Clarify problem areas with color maps of maximum or minimum head, pressure, flow, or volume of air or vapor. Water distribution network needs an efficient modeling for the operation and maintenance with minimal errors in catering to the needs of people with the equitable amount of water through out the year. pressure increase needed to cause a given relative decrease in volume. The demand for the water has grown up exponentially. Water has become the eternal wonder in 21st century with rapid increase of population and expansion of city limits.
