SEH performs engineering evaluations of complex water distribution systems through the use of computer models. Whether a system has 5 or 500 miles of distribution system piping, SEH modeling specialists have the proven experience in creating and calibrating models that accurately simulate existing and future conditions.

We develop computer models to analyze existing pressure and flow concerns, as well as distribution system water quality problems. In addition, we use modeling results to develop cost-effective recommendations to address the long-term growth and development of our client’s water systems. Other common uses of computer models include:

• Siting of Water Supply and Storage Facilities
• Sizing of Distribution Pipe Sizes
• System Head Curves for Pump Design
• Distribution System Network Analysis
• Water Hammer and Hydraulic Transient Analysis
• Fire flow studies
• Water Age Evaluations
• IDSE Investigations
• Master Planning Studies

SEH’s experienced hydraulic engineering professionals pride themselves on developing innovative and cost effective solutions to complex water system engineering problems. Our engineers have successfully completed over 100 computer modeling projects.

From hydraulic analyses to water quality evaluations, SEH’s computer modeling experts can accurately simulate the performance of any water system. We use state-of-the-art modeling software programs such as H2OMap, WaterCAD and InfoWater.
