Petr spoke about the various applications of numerical models in water supply and distribution networks, focusing on
• Water distribution modeling and how to use hydraulic models for design, maintenance and operation of water supply and water distribution systems,
• Hydraulic transient modeling,
• On-line modeling, and
• Non-revenue water and leakage management.
To exemplify the topics, Petr presented a variety of DHI’s projects as well as real-life scenarios.
The seminar was very well attended, its 49 participants comprising employees of PUB, NUS, Surbana, CPG, AECOM, Arup, Black & Veatch (SEA) Pte Ltd, JURONG Consultants, Meinhardt and Worley Parsons. Their dedicated participation underlines how well the seminar was received among its Singaporean audience.
