What's new in InfoWorks WS Pro version 2021.10

Added a new Demand Category type: Equivalent Persons

Added a new Demand Category type: Equivalent Persons. This category type uses a new field called Number of Equivalent Persons that works in conjunction with the Specific Consumption field, in the same way as the Number of Properties field. This field accepts float values, allowing non-integer numbers to be multiplied by the Specific Consumption. This approach also allows you to use the Specific Consumption field for more than one category type, removing the need for an additional field. In this context, the units can mean either Liters/Property/Day or Liters/Person/Day.

The Equivalent Persons category type is available in the Hydrant Node data fields, Customer Points data fields, Demand Adjustment grid window, Alternative Demand data fields, Node Demand window, Node Demand by Category, and Static Demand Allocation.

Display multiple simulation results in Long Section view

You will now be able to display multiple simulation results in Long Section views when scenarios are used in your model. This makes it easier to compare simulations results, which allows you to make adjustments to better manage your network.

Flags field size can now take in upto four characters

The flags field size has gone up from two to four characters, thus allowing longer values in these fields. The flag drop-down menus on the property dialogs are also improved – this is now wider to accommodate longer characters.

Improved Flow/Pressure tab in the Demand Area dialog

The Flow/Pressure tab in the Demand Area dialog now shows the total inflow, outflow, and net inflow in different colours to easily distinguish amongst them. This is especially useful as you view the outputs of the Demand Area live data analysis in graphical format.
