Constraints

Scheduler will allow the elements being optimized to function with certain operating conditions (constraints). The Constraints can be specified for each of the following categories: Junction Pressure, Junction Water Age, Pipe Flow/Velocity, Pump Flow, Tank Level, Valve Flow.

Constraints can be specified as individual element (specific) constraints or as constraints for a group of elements specified in a domain.

Tank Level Constraint

Use this dialog box to enter tank level constraints. Penalty costs are applied when the constraints here are violated. Specific constraints override domain constraints.

This section of the Scheduler dialog box will display a message upon successful completion of the commands that have been activated or pertinent error messages to the simulation.

Junction Pressure Constraint

Use this dialog box to enter pressure constraints. Penalty costs are applied when the constraints here are violated. Specific constraints override domain constraints.

Pipe Flow/Velocity Constraint

Use this dialog box to enter flow and velocity constraints for pipes. Penalty costs are applied when the constraints here are violated.  Specific constraints override domain constraints.
