Wadiso Results Presentation

Wadiso provides for an extremely flexible query system in order to map data and results. For both nodes and links additional data can be included in user-fields. This allows for the inclusion of information pertaining to age, material and pressure classifications etc. of pipes, present and future allocation of stand numbers etc. to nodes, over and above the normally required data defining the component.

A link and node legend is provided, in which the color coding parameters for any one of the link or node data fields can be specified, if a map is to be produced showing output data such as the flow velocities or energy gradients in the pipes, or residual pressure at nodes, with different color coding and different line widths.

In graphical display it is possible to turn on and off either the node display, so that only pipes are mapped, or the pipe display so that only nodes are mapped.

Text from the different fields can also be annotated to the nodes and links. Specify fields can be selectively annotated, e.g. the link # and pressure, or diameter.

Graphs

In both Wadiso and for the background module of EPANet, graphs can be displayed for the results of any link or any node, for the entire time period.

Tabular Reports

The presentation of tabular reports is as flexible as that of mapping. Again, specific fields can be selected for both nodes and links, and range categories set, just as in the case of mapping. The difference being that for mapping, only a single field is selected and for tabular reporting all fields, or only the important fields, can be selected.

In the mapping, the line width or node size can be set to zero if a specific category of link or node should not be displayed - in the tabular reports a flag is set in a dialogue box in order to specify whether or not that specific category should appear in the report. This makes it possible, for instance, to print a report on only those pipes with velocities less than 0.3 m/s or more than 1.5m/s, or a report of only those nodes with pressure below 20 m.

Hydraulic Gradeline Profiles

User selected routes for profiling can be specified graphically in the Wadiso graphics interface. A profile, display an/or plot showing ground elevation and energy grade line for the route is available from the Steady State Simulation module of Wadiso, as well as for any time period within the Extended Period Simulation module.
