When working in InfoSurge Pro, there are several global surge options you can set after a successful hydraulic run.
00:11
These options are accessible from one location in the Run Manager, on the Surge tab.
00:17
Note that it is extremely important to first have a successful hydraulic analysis,
00:23
since the results are used to determine initial conditions for the surge analysis.
00:28
To begin, double-click the desired project .aprx file to open ArcGIS Pro.
00:36
Once your project starts, click the InfoWater Pro tab to open the InfoWater Pro ribbon.
00:44
In the Project panel, click Initialize.
00:47
With InfoWater Pro initialized, from the Model Explorer window, click Run to open the Run Manager.
00:55
Then, click the Surge tab to access the surge analysis options.
01:00
First, specify a Simulation Duration for the surge analysis.
01:05
A typical transient analysis only runs for a few minutes or less.
01:10
For this example, use a duration of 300 seconds.
01:15
Next, enable the Hydraulic Run Only option.
01:19
This will cause only the initial steady state analysis to be run and not the complete surge simulation.
01:27
In the Simulation Monitoring (Pressure Head) group box, set the Node ID to junction 10.
01:35
This is the node that will be monitored and displayed in the Simulation Progress view.
01:40
Then, choose a Display Range to define the pressure head range that will be used for the Y-axis when viewing a graph of the results.
01:50
For this example, set the minimum to 0 feet and the maximum to 500 feet.
01:57
Next, set the Global Wave Speed to 3600 feet per second.
02:03
This value represents the velocity of a pressure wave for any pipe that does not have a wave speed explicitly set.
02:11
Then, set the Pipe Segment Length Tolerance to 10 feet and the Cavitation Head to –33.21 feet.
02:21
In order to run a simplified surge analysis,
02:24
pipe lengths may be adjusted so that each pipe will be a length that ensures pressure waves will traverse said pipe
02:32
in a time that is an exact multiple of the computational time increment.
02:37
The Pipe Segment Length Tolerance field specifies the upper boundary for which these length adjustments will not exceed.
02:45
The Cavitation Head value used represents the head at which water will cavitate.
02:51
After you set all of these options, click the Run icon to run the surge analysis.
02:58
Note that with the Hydraulic Run Only option enabled, this run is only a simple hydraulic analysis.
03:05
Click OK to save the changes and exit the Run Manager.
03:10
If you receive a notification asking if you want to switch to the most recent output data, click Yes.
03:18
You can now view the simulation results by scrolling to the Hydraulic Results: section of the Model Explorer window,
03:26
or from the ribbon, by clicking the Report Manager button.
03:30
Note that with no surge events, the pressure and head at node 11 should remain constant during the run.
