Having a model for simulation of a water distribution system enables us, by using this properly, to optimise the operation of the system. Each case is different, and the model must be implemented with the right software depending on the scope of the studies to be made.

At the ITA we have over twenty-five years' experience in this field, having analysed a large number of water distribution systems in towns and cities, irrigation networks and industrial installations, which enables us to give useful advice to companies, engineering firms, irrigation associations and public authorities about:

• The design of supply and irrigation networks
• Designing models of water distribution networks
• Water audits in urban water networks
• Study of improvements to be implemented (new conduits, regulation, energy optimisation, etc.)
• Drawing up management plans for water networks.
