Extended Period Simulation (EPS) refers to a hydraulic or water quality analysis carried out over a specified time period. Pipe2010's EPS feature simulates extended periods (e.g. 24-144 hours) with pump and tank controls, demand curves, and specified changes at designated times.

When a KYPipe hydraulic model has been developed to run a regular simulation the EPS feature is effortless to setup and launch. There are 4 types of additional data which may be required. These include:
- EPS Data
- Tank Data
- Demand Pattern Data
- Control Switch Data

Pipe2010 EPS modeling feature allows the user to designate a switch to turn on / off a device (control element) or open (on) / close (off) a pipe based on the pressure or water level at some locations (sensing node) in the distribution system. Tank level variations will also be calculated and control switches activated appropriately.
