About Peak Flow Rate and Simultaneity

Explains the concept of Peak flow rate and Simultaneity in the calculation dialog potable water.

The peak flow rate is calculated for each section part individually based on the calculation flow rate and the selected building type from the Settings dialog. You can either set the building type for all section parts in the Settings or select it individually for each section part in the Peak flow rate dialog.

Note: Simultaneities resulting from the assignment of Usage units always have priority within that Usage unit. The assigned simultaneity form the building type Special building then is without effect.
