Surge Module

  • | More

The Surge module can help you:

  • Track the pressure surges throughout the entire network and determines sizes and locations of pressure peaks for given scenarios.
  • Evaluate the operational or mechanical changes required in order to prevent pipe bursts.
  • Reduce the investment in new piping and help you avoid shutdowns.

Based on the hydraulic model, TERMIS enables you to establish scenarios to simulate how the network behaves during transients, for example stopping and starting of pumps, opening and closing of valves or large clients going online. You can determine the pressure fluctuations that such incidents will introduce on the network, and identify peak loads with ultimate accuracy.

With TERMIS you can modify pumps or pumping operation, valve opening times or piping layout to ensure that the appropriate solution is chosen.
