Make it obvious if UPC active on the pump / valve control properties

It can be extremely frustrating to troubleshoot valve or pump operation using valve / pump control options, only to discover that a UPC is overriding them. The pump / valve control options should be greyed out if UPC is active and overriding to ma...

Scenarios in IWLive

Currently, it appears that scenarios set up in InfoWorks Pro cannot be viewed within IWLive. This is a significant drawback, as scenarios such as peak demand conditions are often used and need to be interrogated within IWLive. I think adding in th...

Improved scenario organization

Can we have the scenarios functionality improved to allow for scenarios to be organized into folders, ordered by various attributes (other than time of creation) and a search function within the scenario window. It would be useful to have the fold...

Parallel Processing of Hydraulically Independent DMAs in WS Pro

For utilities managing large water distribution systems, there is clear value in maintaining multiple distribution networks (DMAs) within a single WS Pro model, particularly when each DMA is hydraulically independent and bounded by fixed‑head cond...

Cavitation Check in Pumps & Valves

It is great that the software allows the definition of Control Valve curve to study the performance of the valve. However, it still needs to include the ability to define the cavitation curve (sigma or Xf) to check if the valve is cavitating or no...

Enable GMR to manipulate Demand Scaling

I want to explore model sensitivity to multiple different demand growth scenarios.Currently GMR enables direct editing of demand at nodes, but this replaces the current node demand and doesn't scale well for system-wide assessments.I want to apply...

Sub‑Minute Timesteps or Enhanced Transient Controls in InfoWorks WS Pro

The minimum 1‑minute hydraulic timestep in InfoWorks WS Pro prevents realistic modelling of fast‑acting control valves that respond within seconds. This leads to overstated burst volumes and flooding impacts. Workaround: Users currently scale syst...

Multi-fireflow in WS Pro

Currently, the available built-in fireflow options in WS Pro run for individual nodes/hydrants as if no hydrant in the system is open. Adding the ability to run multiple hydrants that are opened simultaneously will be very useful.

Parallel Computing for Optimising Simulation Times in Massive Network Models

Working with Infoworks WS Pro we have seen that the software never uses more than 2 logical processor without reaching more than 20% of CPU capacity. As a users we would like to take advantage of multi-threaded CPUs to accelerate simulation intens...

Open/Closed Valve Control - Live Data

When using an open/closed valve, setting a time profile to describe the opening and closing pressures, it would be useful to be able to load values form Live Data. It should be possible to connect the valve to 2 different live datas: one live data...
