Performing transient analysis in InfoWorks WS Pro

Module overview

Learn how pressure fluctuations can cause hydraulic transients—also known as water hammer or surge—and how to implement optimal methods to alleviate them.

After completing, you'll be able to:

• Define hydraulic transients in InfoWorks WS Pro models and run a transient systems simulation.
• Visualize the results of a transient systems analysis to easily detect potential problem areas.
• Create a surge protection device to control transients in the hydraulic model.
