OpenFlows Water
Water distribution modelling and hydraulic analysis
OpenFlows Water is the current Bentley family for pressurized water-distribution modeling. It combines the capabilities historically associated with WaterCAD, WaterGEMS and HAMMER, so CTtec treats those names as tier capabilities and search aliases rather than separate current commercial products.

Senior-engineer perspective
Use the network model to test hydraulic decisions before they reach the field.
OpenFlows Water is the current Bentley family for pressurized water-distribution modeling. It combines the capabilities historically associated with WaterCAD, WaterGEMS and HAMMER, so CTtec treats those names as tier capabilities and search aliases rather than separate current commercial products.
Compare hydraulic scenarios before committing capital or operational changes.
Connect network data, engineering models and design decisions with fewer manual handoffs.
Apply steady-state and extended-period hydraulic simulation where that capability directly supports the project decision.
Technical scope
Hydraulic and operational functions for system-level decisions.
Only capabilities supported by the reviewed source-controlled product record are shown here. CTtec adds engineering context without reproducing Bentley marketing copy.
Steady-state and extended-period hydraulic simulation
Fire flow, water quality, pressure, energy and network criticality analysis
Calibration/optimization, SCADA integration and transient analysis by tier
Engineering workflow
System data in. Calibrated scenarios and design decisions out.
The sequence is assembled from the product's reviewed capability/application data and CTtec discipline vocabulary. It is a project-use model, not a claim that every project follows an identical process.
Engineering inputs
Network topology, assets, demand/loading data, operating rules and field/GIS information
Core engineering work
Steady-state and extended-period hydraulic simulation
Validation & review
Fire flow, water quality, pressure, energy and network criticality analysis
Project outcome
Water distribution planning and design. Hydraulic decisions, design scenarios and operational planning outputs
Connected handoff
MicroStation, OpenRoads/OpenSite and AutoCAD
Engineering applications
Network decisions where scenario comparison matters.
These application areas come directly from the reviewed product record. They are presented as decision contexts rather than padded with repeated generic prose.
Water distribution planning and design
Operational scenario analysis and resilience
Water-hammer/transient studies
Engineering context
Connect network behaviour, operational context and capital planning.

Product selection guidance
Choose the OpenFlows workflow that matches the hydraulic question and network scale.
Selection guidance is CTtec engineering editorial based on the reviewed product scope. It is intended to support tool choice, not replace project-specific engineering judgement.
Choose OpenFlows Water for distribution hydraulics, water quality, calibration, optimization and transient analysis.
If the network is sewer/stormwater use OpenFlows Sewer or Storm; for live operational digital-twin analytics consider WaterSight.
- Confirm the current Bentley system requirements and licensing terms before deployment.
- Validate project data standards, coordinate systems, units, and exchange formats during implementation planning.
Connected engineering workflow
Interfaces, handoffs and adjacent Bentley applications.
Connections are shown only where they are present in the reviewed product record.
Engineering & commercial FAQ
Questions to resolve before the tool becomes part of the project workflow.
Answers use the reviewed product data, CTtec engineering editorial, Bentley public pricing and clearly separated CTtec sales-support context.
When should an engineering team choose OpenFlows Water?
Choose OpenFlows Water for distribution hydraulics, water quality, calibration, optimization and transient analysis. If the network is sewer/stormwater use OpenFlows Sewer or Storm; for live operational digital-twin analytics consider WaterSight.
What engineering work does OpenFlows Water support?
