A Critical Review on Design And Analysis of Water Distribution Network Using Watergems And Epanet Softwares

Abstract

Water is used by all living beings, including man, animals, and plants, from ancient times for different purposes, circulated from the source by different techniques. The water distribution network is an expensive and tortuous system that is designed in such a layout to fulfill the demand of the community with an adequate pressure head. WDNs are designed and analyzed manually and with the help of software such as EPAnet, WaterCAD, and WaterGEMS. The paper aims to scrutinize the WDNs,and their design and compare theanalysis developed with the help ofWaterGEMS and EPANET software.
