Overview window or Cost window

Overview window (or Cost window)

The Overview window (Baseline page) displays three read-only grids of hydraulic, pump cost and sustainability analysis results for the simulation currently selected in the Run Manager.

This window is known as the Cost window in the Comparison page, which is displayed when users perform a run comparison. In this case, the results are displayed for each run.

The window is displayed on the right hand side of the page.

Baseline Page

To display the window:

  • Click the Overview tab at the bottom of the Baseline page, or
  • Select Overview from the Window menu, or
  • Click the Overview / Cost button (Cost Window button) of the Window toolbar.

Comparison Page

To display the window, click the Cost tab at the bottom of the Comparison page, or select Cost from the Window menu.

Window Description

Hydraulic Report

Data Description

Total Reservoir Full Volumes

Sum of Reservoir Capacities

Total Reservoir Start Volumes

Sum of volume of water in Reservoirs at start of simulation

Total Reservoir End Volumes

Sum of volume of water in Reservoirs at end of simulation

Total Reservoir Deficit

Applicable in cases where a reservoir(s) has emptied:

Sum of the total amount of water needed to maintain head at reservoir bottom level during simulation for all reservoirs that have emptied.

Total Reservoir Spills

Applicable in cases where a reservoir(s) has overflowed:

Sum of the total amount of water that has overflowed from all reservoirs during simulation.

Total Demand

Total demand from the model. This is the sum of Total Consumption, Total Transfer Out, Total Exceptional Demand and Total Leakage.

Total Consumption

The total demand* defined at nodes in the node demand grid on the Node Demand Page in InfoWorks WS Pro.

*Demand profiles with the leakage option uncheckedin the Demand Diagram Editor.

Please refer to the InfoWorks WS Pro help for further information.

Total Transfer In

Total flow into the system via transfer nodes (Flow Factor = 1)

Total Transfer Out

Total flow out of the system via transfer nodes (Flow Factor = -1)

Total Exceptional Demand

Total demand at nodes defined as exceptional flow on the Exceptional Flow Profile Page of InfoWorks WS Pro.

Please refer to the InfoWorks WS Pro help for further information.

Total Leakage

Total losses to the system. This is made up of the total leakage* defined at nodes in the node demand grid and the Leakage Loss, both defined on the Node DemandPage of InfoWorks WS Pro.

*Demand profiles with the leakage option checkedin the Demand Diagram Editor.

Please refer to the InfoWorks WS Pro help for further information.

Cost Report

The Cost Report displays a summary of totals for Pumping stations.

Cost and sustainability analysis results can only be calculated if Electricity Tariff and Energy CO2 Factors data (defined in InfoWorks WS Pro) has been included in the run(s).

Field Description
Total Pump Energy Sum of integrated Pumping Station Power over time for all Pumping stations
Total Pump CO2 Equivalent Total pump energy expressed as a carbon dioxide equivalent
Total Pump Cost of Energy

Pump Energy x Daily Rates Charge

Where Daily Rates Charge is defined in the Electricity Tariff

Total Pump Volume Pumped Sum of volume of water pumped from all Pumping Stations during simulation
Total Pump Specific Consumption

Total Pump Energy / Total Pump Volume Pumped

Total Pump Monthly cost of Max Power

Sum of Maximum Cost results for all Pumping Stations in the network.

Maximum Cost is the monthly charge for maximum power used, calculated as:

PMAX / PF x Max Power Demand Rate

Where:

PMAX is maximum averaged electric power (averaged over kVAtime interval defined in Electricity Tariff)

PF is Power Factor defined at Pump Station

Max Power Demand Rate is cost defined in Electricity Tariff

Total Pump Monthly cost of Max Power2

Sum of Maximum Cost 2 results for all Pumping Stations in the network

Calculated in a similar way to Total Pump Monthly cost of Max Power.

Total Pump Monthly cost of Power Availability

Sum of cost per month of Availability Rate of Power (Capacity Charge) for all pumping stations. Calculated from:

Availability Rate of Power Charge x Max Power

Where:

Availability Rate of Power Charge is defined in the Electricity Tariff

Max Power is defined at the Pump Station object

Sustainability Report

The Sustainability Report displays a summary of sustainability analysis results.

Cost and sustainability results can only be calculated if Electricity Tariff and Energy CO2 Factors data (defined in InfoWorks WS Pro) has been included in the run(s).

Field Description
Total Energy Loss Total daily rate of energy loss from pipes, valves and nodes
Total CO2 Equivalent Total daily energy loss expressed as carbon dioxide equivalent
