HydraulicSim

Web-based hydraulic simulation software for water distribution systems.

HydraulicSim is a browser-based modelling platform being developed to help engineers prepare water-network models, run steady and transient simulations, inspect pressure and flow behaviour, and compare modelling assumptions through a clear interface.

What the software does

Build network models

Create or prepare hydraulic networks with pipes, nodes, reservoirs, pumps, valves, tanks and boundary conditions through a web workflow.

Run simulations

Run steady-state initialisation and transient studies, including water-hammer and state-space modelling workflows.

Review results

Inspect pressure and flow responses, compare scenarios, review warnings, and prepare outputs for engineering validation.

Modelling direction

Transient response

Support for rapid events such as pump trips, valve closures and other changes that can create pressure-wave behaviour in pipe networks.

Control-oriented analysis

Reduced and interpretable dynamic models for modal analysis, observer workflows and decision-support studies.

Current scope

  • Controlled testing and demonstration workflows for hydraulic modelling studies.
  • Scenario comparison, validation outputs and clearer inspection of simulation behaviour.
  • Access by request while the software is under active development.
Beta note: HydraulicSim is under active development. It is suitable for controlled testing and demonstrations, not yet for commercial engineering decisions without independent verification.
