Implicit Variable Speed Pump Control Dialog Box Page 1 of 2

Implicit Variable Speed Pump Control Dialog Box


The Implicit Variable Speed Pump Control automatically calculates pump speeds over
time during extended period simulation (EPS) runs. It maintains user-specified fixed or time-
varying (pattern-based) heads at nodes anywhere in the system or fixed or time-varying
pump discharge flows. This allows the user to accurately mimic the actual operational
behavior of the variable speed pump.
Please Note: The implicit  variable speed pump control feature applies to the Standard
simulation and Fire Flow Analysis runs only. See:Run Manager Dialog Box The standard run
results will apply to subsequent runs for Water Quality, Energy Management and
Sustainability. The implicit variable speed pump results cannot apply to other types of
simulations or extended modules such as the calibrator or designer extensions etc.

Use the Variable Speed Pump Control  toolbar button from the Model Explorer -
Attribute Tab Toolbar to access the Variable Speed Pump Control dialog box.

Control Type
l Standard non-VSP - Select to remove VSP control or to make this pump a non-VSP
controlled pump.
l Controlled by Downstream Junction Pressure - Pump speed is controlled by the
downstream junction pressure of the pump discharge junction. Pump speed will be
varied to match the downstream junction pressure setting or the pressure pattern
setting at the discharge of the pump element.
l Controlled by Remote Junction Pressure - Pump speed is controlled by the remote
pressure setting at a remote junction. Pump speed will be varied to match the
pressure setting or the pressure pattern at the designated remote junction. Note: For
the remote junction control to work properly, the remote junction pressure must be
directly related to the controlling pump speed.
l Controlled by Pump Flow - Pump speed is controlled by the flow through the pump.
Pump speed will be varied to match the pump flow setting or the flow pattern.

Control Data
l Control Value - Enter the junction pressure or pump flow to be controlled by the
pump.

l Remote Control Junction ID - Enter the remote junction ID or use the search
button to locate the remote junction in the map view.
l Optional Control Pattern ID - Use the pattern feature if the control pressure or flow
varies with the time of day. Select the pattern ID from the pull down menu or use the
Browse button to open the Pattern Editor. If no pattern is selected the pressure
or flow setting will be used.

VSP Pump Properties


l Maximum Speed Setting - Select the maximum speed factor value. For example, if
the pump speed is limited to twice the rated speed of the pump, enter the speed
factor of 2.0.
l Additional Parallel Pump(s) - Enter the number of additional identical pumps to be
simulated in parallel.

Purge - Clear all variable speed pump control data

Update - Save the current data or changes and exit the Variable Speed Pump
Control dialog box.

Cancel - Do not save any changes and exit the Variable Speed Pump Control
dialog Box.
