Design of Water Distribution Network Using EPANET Software
摘要
The inability to supply sufficient water to meet the demands of the continually growing population is one of the biggest challenges to the development of an effective water supply system. Around the world, the population is increasing rapidly as technology is advancing, which drives up the demand for drinkable water. Water supply is the process of supplying an adequate and consistent amount of water through a planned network of pipes in order to meet the demands of a population that is always expanding. EPANET is a public domain software using which we can design any sort of water distribution network (WDN). In this study, EPANET software is used to design and analyse the hydraulics of the WDN. In the present study, the WDN is designed for the Jubilee Park region, Aurangabad district of Maharashtra, India. System In the present study, the WDN has been designed with the help of EPANET in which we use the number of nodes, elevation and number of pipes and demands of the study area.
