Description

OpenFlows WaterGEMS provides you with a comprehensive yet easy-to-use decision-support tool for water distribution networks. The software helps improve your knowledge of how infrastructure behaves as a system, how it reacts to operational strategies, and how it should grow as population and demands increase. From fire flow and water quality simulations, to criticality and energy cost analysis, OpenFlows WaterGEMS has everything you need in a flexible multiplatform environment. OpenFlows WaterGEMS is a superset of OpenFlows WaterCAD. #AulaGEOIn this course you will learn the use of a sofwtare specialized in this features:Intelligent PlanningEfficiently identify potential problems, accommodate service area growth, and plan/prioritize capital improvement projects by using criticality analysis, DMA planning, and pressure management tools to identify potential projects.Optimized OperationsUse real-time data to analyze energy use and costs, maximize operational efficiencies, minimize disruptions, and intelligently respond to emergencies.Build and Update Models FasterIntuitive to use so you can easily jumpstart your modeling process with geospatial data, CAD drawings, databases, and spreadsheets. Apply automated calibration, leak detection, design, rehabilitation, and pump operations. Identify Water LossUse field data to quantify nonrevenue water and help pinpoint loss locations faster.Assess Fire Flow CapacityUse automated workflows to access and identify inadequacies in fire protection.COURSE CONTENT #AulaGEOINTRODUCTIONLecture 1: IntroductionLecture 2: Basic InterfaceBUILDING A NETWORKLecture 3: Prepare Network LayoutLecture 4: Lay NetworkLecture 5: Use of Properties ManagerLecture 6: Use of Flex TablesLecture 7: Use of Demand Control CenterLecture 8: Compute and Review ResultsLecture 9: Creating Fire Flow Demand AlternativesLecture 10: Reviewing Results for Fire Flow ScenarioLecture 11: Creating New Physical AlternativeLecture 12: Reviewing Results for Fire Flow with new Diameter ScenarioIMPORTING DATA MODEL & ADDING PUMPS, TANKS, AND PRESSURE REDUCING VALVESLecture 13: Using Model BuilderLecture 14: Data Validation and CleaningLecture 15: Adding Junction DemandsLecture 16: Review Results and ShortcomingsLecture 17: Element MorphingLecture 18: PRVs Pump and TankData InputLecture 19: Compute Daily DemandLecture 20: Additional Demand At J5Lecture 21: Review ResultsSTEADY STATE CALIBRATION OF FIELD MEASUREMENTSLecture 22: ExerciseSYSTEM DESIGN IMPROVEMENTSLecture 23: ExerciseAUTOMATED FIRE FLOW ANALYSISLecture 24: Max Day Pressures AnalysisLecture 25: Fire Flow CalculationLecture 26: Auxilary Fire Flow CalculationValves and Critical Segments AnalysisLecture 27: ExerciseEPS Modeling and Energy Costing AnalysisLecture 28: Setting up PumpsLecture 29: Scenario 1 : Tank ControlLecture 30: Scenario 2 : Constant Speed Pumps with No TankLecture 31: Scenario 3 : Variable Speed Pumps with No TankLecture 32: Energy CostsModel Builder, Trex and Load BuilderLecture 33: Setting up Model BuilderLecture 34: Building the ModelLecture 35: Reviewing the ModelLecture 36: TrexLecture 37: Load BuilderLecture 38: Associating DemandsLecture 39: Thiessen Polygons Lecture 40: Review
