Right-click Demand Models and add an Urban Behavioural Demand Model

Right Click the Urban Behavioural Demand Model and Add Configuration (note: multiple configurations can call a single urban template)
Configure the number of dwellings this water user is to represent, the urban scenario and the model run from which to access the results from the full number of permutations. If the urban template has not been pre-run appropriately a warning will appear.
The distributions, including time-based distributions of each use type can be specified for each configuration under the demand model. This is similar to the Sampled Occupancy and Appliance configuration in the urban scenario type.
The Urban Demand Model will take the distributed average demand generated from the supplied Urban Scenario. This is best explained with an example:
If there are three-star ratings for showers that are included in our Urban Scenario run, the demands from each are imported into the Schematic Scenario and available under the urban demand model configuration. The urban demand model is configured to represent four dwellings and distributions of shower rating types selected for the Urban demand model configuration are: one star: 50%, two stars: 25%, and three-star: 25%. The urban demand model would call the demand results for one start showers twice (for two dwellings), two stars once and three star once, summing all of them together to create a demand for all four houses.
