GESTAR 2016 AVALAIBLE NOW
GESTAR 2016 (multilanguage: English/Spanish/French/Portugese) is avalaible (latest update: may, 6th 2016) in Software Download section.
GESTAR 2016 is a significant advance in hydraulic engineering tools for the economical and reliable design, execution and management of pressurised irrigation networks. A unique, cutting-edge product, it uses many innovative techniques, with an interactive graphical interface enabling hydraulic and energy sizing, analysis and management in pressurized systems (distribution networks and also individual plots)...
A single platform for all users and every stage in the development of systems (project, execution and exploitation) letting you transfer, change and update the model interactively, giving instant results for the effects of any change or adaptation of the initial project in construction or during use. Main characteristics are describeb below:
Integration of optimum design & hydraulic and energy analysis in a single application, not only makes your work easier and quicker but more importantly, lets you find much more economical and reliable solutions than using processes based on simple optimisation routines.
High performances in optimum design of branched networks with a given layout, including multiple options, protocols and easy-to-use tools helping you to find solutions with significant reductions in system costs.
Integration of all modules and tools in an intuitive interactive graphic interface, and communicating using the ACCESS standard as an intermediary with all types of CAD/GIS systems or third party software. Integrated utilities for simple and direct two-way topology and data transfer with AUTOCAD 2010-2012.
The hydraulic-energy analysis module, uniquely robust, flexible and efficient, was developed specifically for GESTAR with exclusive capabilities, such as inverse analysis, efficient treatment of low resistance elements and regulating valves, advanced modelling of point emitters and trickle lateral lines with emitted flow depending on pressure, characteristic curves of pumps with inflection points, modelling of direct pumping stations using system operation curves, etc.
Integration of many innovative tools (generation of random and deterministic demand scenarios, alarms, filters, evolutions over time, irrigation scheduling templates, configuration of tubes with distributed pressure-driven emission, emitters, energy analysis, etc) conceived and developed as the result of long experience in the design and modelling of irrigation systems.
Availability of databases for pipes, valves, singular losses, sprinklers, trickle laterals, fluids, electricity rates, pumps, etc. Open databases, configurable by users.
Additional communications with other software: exchange of information in tables and graphic objects in MS Office (Word, Excel, Access). Exporting and importing of nodes and conduits to EPANET.
AND ......TELEGESTAR: Revolutionary solution for integration of hydraulic simulation tools in control and management systems, giving flexibility and power to network management and saving energy in the case of pumping stations.
