We can provide to your projects and studies a reliable, efficient and specialized technical support for the design, simulation and analysis of all water systems, including the integration of hydrodynamic and environmental issues. The Universidad of Zaragoza is specialized in development and use of advanced sophisticated modeling tools, only available to excellence interdisciplinary teams, as experts on infrastructures and biological systems analysis.
We develop partnerships with government, engineering firms, companies, manufacturers, fundations, and social organizations for the design and optimization of new systems, the improvement of existing facilities, studies on the development of strategic plans and diagnosis of infrastructures. Environmental actions for protection and rehabilitation of water masses, in the context of the Water Framework Directive goals, are included in our skills.... The Universidad of Zaragoza supports the highest compromise with the quality in design of water infrastructure and recovery of river ecosystems. Thanks to an extensive practical experience in the implementation and calibration of hidroinformatics tools (own developed or by third party) we can supply the most suitable resources for each case. |

> Irrigation and drinking water networks:
 |
¿We can give accurate answer to questions such as: Is it possible to reduce investment costs and energy of a new design or a network extension?. How to increase the effectiveness of the existing distribution network? What is the cause of the malfunctions encountered and how to resolve them? How to adjust chlorination levels? What is the best composition of the pumping station and pumping costs appraise? |

> Water hammer in pressurized networks:
 |
The flow transients in complex networks of any extension are no longer a mystery. You can ensure safety in the facilities, optimize protection systems, obtain savings on pipe class and diameters, avoid problems in pressure tests taking advantage of the UNE-EN_805, by means reliable calculation of water hammer phenomenon in networks, including the modeling all components. |

|
> Sewage disposal systems:
 |
Complex issues facing urban sewage can be solve with tools that allow a complete network simulation in closed manifolds ..The compromise between transport capacity of wastewater and storm water, the election of allowable slopes and sections more suitable, the prevention of decomposition and odor, the water quality assessment, the sizing and location of storm tanks... are problems that can be now optimized thanks to comprehensive modeling. |

|
> Free surface flow:
 |
In this field we include the sizing and performance analysis of networks of canals, drainage collector system, gate control and automation, maneuvers studies. |
|
|
> Dam break studies:
 |
Fast transient in free surface flows, effects of erosion in complex geometries, in one or two dimensions. Behaviour of natural waterways or drains in flash floods , prediction of the control structure´s impacts, assessment of erosion and transport of solids and their hydromorphological consequences. |
|
|
> Hidrodinámica Fluvial:
 |
Comportamiento de los cauces naturales ante crecidas naturales o desagües controlados, la interferencia de estructuras de regulación u obras interpuestas, la evaluación de erosión y transporte de sólidos y sus consecuencias hidromorfológicas.
