Description
Summary:Calibration of network models is an integral part of water distribution system analysis. Calibration, establishes the credibility of the model that is used as a benchmark case for studies and as a predictor. Calibration may be done manually or through the aid of computer programs. Sources of error or inaccuracies include improper network definition or demand distribution, or both. A thorough knowledge of operation and performance of the system is gained through the process of calibration. This may be more important than the degree of accuracy of calibration, since modeling is often more concerned with changes than with absolute values.
