Hydraulic Modelling
Hydraulic Modelling is the process of modelling the movements of fluids across a network. Generally this involves water network modelling, however we have the capacity to model for other fluids.
Our skills
Engineered Efficiency has a depth of experience in hydraulic modelling, and a range of software and tools to meet your hydraulic modelling needs.
Our core capabilities include:
Network modelling using WaterGEMS
Complex long-term fluids modelling through WaterCAD
Gravity flow, sewerage, and open channel modelling through SewerGEMS
Water hammer analysis for transients modelling
Water network optimisation
Future planning for water schemes
District metering
Water loss minimisation and pressure loss management.
Local Government Irrigation Assessment
Engineered Efficiency was engaged by a local government authority to provide assessment of the town’s irrigation capacity. We surveyed 30 irrigation sites to provide a comprehensive look at both what current
Our work included
• Water supply system assessment (recycled + potable networks)
• Hydraulic modelling of all irrigation sites using WaterCAD
• Analysis of tank inflows, pump performance, and network constraints
• Identification of supply shortfalls and pressure limitations
• Modelling of future demand scenarios (15‑year horizon)
• Climate change, population growth and network change considerations
• Recommendations for pipeline upgrades, hydraulic shortcuts, and tank supply improvements
• Strategic planning for long‑term irrigation reliability.
Our recommended upgrades helped improve the irrigation system of the LGA in the long term, helping the town to cope with climate change, population growth and changes in irrigation needs. We our proud to help our local community build up their long-term water capacity.
