To Simulate The Water System a System Simulator is created. The Simulator simulates all the valves, pumps and their respective levels in the tanks. The main thing to consider is that the calculated water levels in the water tanks are based on TorrIcelli's Law and the Volumetric Flow Rate Equation, (White, 2011). Simplified these two equation were utilized:

v = sqrt(2gh)

Q = v * A


Where g is the gravity constant, h is the height of the water above exit hole, A is the area of the water tube.
