How do I simulate a water network?

Open this page and use the live Small-World Network tool below — set your inputs and the simulation runs instantly in your browser using real numerics. No install, no account needed.

Yes. The simulation runs free in your browser. A one-time unlock or a Pro plan adds advanced parameters, saved presets, data import, and clean exports.

Can I use my own numbers?

Absolutely — every input is adjustable, and with data import you can drive a water network from your own measurements.

Rewiring probability p

Start with an orderly ring where everyone knows their neighbors, then randomly rewire a few connections. Even a handful of long-range shortcuts collapses the average path length — the six-degrees-of-separation effect — while keeping high local clustering. This small-world structure appears in social networks, the brain, and power grids.

L \sim \frac{ln N}{ln k} = \frac{ln 24}{ln 4} \approx 0.00, C \approx 0.000, p = 0.10

Reading this result: Small-world regime: a few random shortcuts collapse the average path length while clustering stays high — the six-degrees effect.

About this simulation

The full Small-World Network tool models a water network with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.
