This add-in program extends Water Networks functionality by adding the capability of optimizing water networks based on Genetic Algorithms.
Features
- Optimization of water networks (both branched networks and networks containing loops).
- Use of any number of possible conduit shapes.
- Multiple constraints: Maximum/minimum velocity in pipes, maximum/minimum pressure at junctions, shape availability (optional).
- Independent pressure requirement for each junction.
- The user can fix one or more pipes to specific pipe specifications.
- Complete integration in Water Networks’ user interface.
