Guidelines for Developing, Calibrating, and Using Hydraulic Models

Abstract

Produces detailed guidance on optimizing hydraulic modeling techniques for drinking water distribution systems, to better support utility decision-making. Addresses the data and technical issues that are required for building hydraulic models and performing calibration, validation, and maintenance of the models developed by the utilities. Also assists utilities to identify the appropriate level of detail and effort needed to match their needs. Published in 2010.
