Design of Water Distribution System for Nandanvan Colony, Aurangabad, Maharashtra State Using EPANET
摘要
Basic infrastructure, like water supply, is growing more and more necessary for supporting this development in nations like India as they continue to urbanize and develop. Maharashtra State in India is one such region where water distribution systems (WDS) are crucial for providing potable water to end-users. The software used to develop water distribution networks (WDNs) is essential, and this study reviews the use of Environmental protection agency network evaluation tool (EPANET), a public domain software that can design any type of WDN. The current work, utilizes EPANET to design the hydraulic aspects of the WDN for the Nandanvan Colony, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India. This study utilizes various factors such as the number of nodes, elevation, pipes, and demand of the study area to develop the WDN. The study offers a novel approach to designing and analysing the WDS using EPANET software, offering insights into the design and planning of effective water supply systems.
