Once you are done setting up the

00:05

hydraulic modeling for an extended period simulation,

00:08

you can run the simulation

00:11

to begin

00:11

double click the desired project dot APR X file to open

00:16

Agis Pro.

00:18

Once the project starts,

00:19

click the info water pro tab to open the info water pro ribbon

00:24

in the project panel, click initialize

00:29

in the model explorer attribute tab, click run manager

00:34

in the standard tab of the run manager, set the time setting to

00:38

s extended period analysis,

00:43

click run to run the simulation.

00:47

The green light indicates a successful simulation.

00:51

If this light was yellow,

00:52

then the simulation would have run partially or completely and it

00:56

would have been accompanied by warning messages on the output report.

00:60

If the run does not run through completely,

01:02

then those warnings would need to be addressed before

01:04

running the simulation again until it was successful.

01:09

All warnings should be reviewed in case they

01:11

are critical but some are often negligible.

01:15

A red light would indicate that the simulation failed to converge to a solution.

01:20

Lastly,

01:21

a gray light would have meant that the simulation did not produce

01:24

any output and you would need to troubleshoot to figure out why

01:29

click. OK, to exit the run manager.

01:33

Since this hydraulic model ran successfully,

01:35

you can now review the results using the attribute tab of the model explorer.

01:40

And you can create a variety of reports using the tools in the report manager.

Step-by-step:

Once you are done setting up the hydraulic modeling for an extended period simulation, you can run the simulation.

  1. Open the appropriate .aprx file in ArcGIS Pro.
  2. From the ribbon, InfoWater Pro tab, Project panel, click Initialize.
  3. In the Model Explorer, Attribute tab, click Run Manager.
    The Model Explorer
  1. From the Run Manager dialog box, Standard tab, set Time Setting to EPS, Extended Period Analysis.
  2. Click Run.
    The Run Manager dialog

The green light indicates a successful simulation:

If this light was yellow, then the simulation would have run partially or completely, and it would have been accompanied by warning messages on the output report. If the run does not run through completely, then those warnings would need to be addressed before running the simulation again until it was successful. All warnings should be reviewed in case they are critical, but some are often negligible.

A red light would indicate that the simulation failed to converge to a solution. Lastly, a gray light would have meant that the simulation did not produce any output, and you would need to troubleshoot to figure out why.

  1. Click OK.
  2. Review the results from the Model Explorer, Attribute tab.
