Analysis Menu

The Analysis menu contains the following commands:

Scenarios	Opens the Scenario Manager, which allows you to create, view, and manage project scenarios.
Alternatives	Opens the Alternative Manager, which allows you to create, view, and manage alternatives.
Calculation Options	Opens the Calculation Options Manager, which allows you to create, view, and manage calculation settings for the project.
Post Calculation Processor	Opens the Post Calculation Processor dialog.
Totalizing Flow Meters	Opens the Totalizing Flow Meters manager where you can create new meters.
Hydrant Flow Curves	Opens the Hydrant Flow Curves dialog box, which allows you to view, edit, and create hydrant flow definitions.
System Head Curves	Opens the System Head Curves manager.
Transient Results Viewer	Opens the transient results viewer dialog.
Transient Time Step Options	Opens the Transient Time Step Options dialog.
Transient Thematic Viewer	Opens the Transient Thematic Viewer dialog.
Energy Costs	Opens the Scenario Energy Cost Manager, where you can view and compute energy costs.
Darwin Calibrator	Opens the Darwin Calibrator where you can create, edit, and run calibration studies.
Darwin Designer	Opens the Darwin Designer where you can create, edit, and run designer studies and design runs.
Darwin Scheduler	Opens the Darwin Scheduler where you can create, edit, and run scheduler studies and design runs.
Criticality	Opens the Segmentation and Criticality Manager where you can create new criticality scenarios.
Pressure Zone	Opens the Pressure Zone manager where you can identify elements that are located in a pressure zone based on the boundaries of the zone.
Time Browser	Opens the Time Browser dialog box, where you can manipulate the currently displayed time step and animate the drawing pane.
Fire Flow Results Browser	Opens the Fire Flow Results Browser, which allows you to quickly jump to fire flow nodes and display the results of fire flow analysis at the highlighted node.
Flushing Results Browser	Opens the Flushing Results Browser, allowing you to display the results of the flushing analysis at various locations.
Calculation Summary	Opens the Calculation Summary to view results.
Transient Calculation Summary	Opens the Transient Calculation Summary to view results of transient calculations.
User Notifications	Opens User Notifications allowing you to view warnings and errors uncovered by the validation process.
Patterns	Opens the Pattern Manager where you can create and edit diurnal loading patterns for use with extended period simulations.
Pattern Setups	Opens the Pattern Setup Manager where you can associate diurnal patterns with the appropriate unit sanitary loads for a given scenario.
Validate	Runs a diagnostic check on the network data to alert you to possible problems that may be encountered during calculation. This is the manual validation command, and it checks for input data errors. It differs in this respect from the automatic validation that HAMMER CONNECT runs when the compute command is initiated, which checks for network connectivity errors as well as many other things beyond what the manual validation checks.
Compute Initial Conditions	Allows you to establish the initial conditions for the transient simulation
Compute	Calculates the network. Prior to calculating, an automatic validation routine is triggered, which checks the model for network connectivity errors and performs other validation.
Always Compute Initial Conditions	When this option is toggled on, initial conditions will always be computed when a Compute command is initiated.
