Water is a critical and crucial substance for sustenance all over the world. The need for water distribution systems to satisfy increasing demand and also to satisfy quality requirements has birthed a surging need to model real-life situations in order to access the workability of Water distribution system (WDSs) and their ability to operate efficiently. Through the review of the analysis of modelling software and performance analysis, it was deduced that different licensed software and freeware products are available for design and model of various categories of WDSs, ranging from simple to complex, realistic and even hypothetical. It was discovered that software with licenses offers versatility, flexibility and precision in modeling various categories of hydraulic models with various features over software that are open for all. Therefore, the decision on which software to use for the design of water distribution systems is predicated on software precision, the overall project cost, software - required data, complexity of system, aspect of system to be modelled (quality, demand, valve operation and location etc.) software specificity related to the types of distribution systems that it can manage and computational and hydraulic criterion.

Public Water Supply Distribution Systems

Assessing and reducing risks: first report.

The Water Science and Technology Board has released the first report of the Committee on Public Water Supply Distribution Systems: Assessing and Reducing Risks, which is studying water quality issues associated with public water supply distribution systems and their potential risks to consumers. The distribution system, which is a critical component of every drinking water utility, constitutes a significant management challenge from both an operational and public health standpoint. This first report was requested by the EPA, as the agency considers revisions to the Total Coliform Rule with potential new requirements for ensuring the integrity of the distribution system. This first report identifies trends relevant to the deterioration of drinking water quality in distribution systems and prioritizes issues of greatest concern according to high, medium, and low priority categories. Of the issues presented in nine EPA white papers that were reviewed by the committee, cross connections and backflow, new or repaired water mains, and finished water storage facilities were judged by the committee to be of the highest importance based on their associated potential health risks. In addition, the report noted that two other issues should also be accorded high priority: premise plumbing and distribution system operator training. This first report will be followed in about 18 months by a more comprehensive final report that evaluates approaches for risk characterization and identifies strategies that could be considered to reduce the risks posed by water-quality deteriorating events.

The ever increasing population in a country like India calls for an adequate, efficient and uniform supply of water to meet the demands for the sustainable and suave life. In this context, there is a need for developing such adequate water supply through network systems in order to cater the needs to meet the demands. With the advancement in technology, it is possible to design the network of water supply distribution and apply with ease. One such software which provides answers for all the above said problems is EPANET. The lack of such network distribution was found in the Palahalli village located at Srirangapatna taluk, Mandya district. Hence in the present study an attempt is made to design the new network of water supply distribution system keeping the aim at future growth of population. The design of water supply project for the supply of water using EPANET software proves to be efficient in meeting the daily requirement of the selected area confirming with the standards. The results of the EPANET include the various hydraulic parameters such as head, pressure at each node, head loss in pipes and at nodes. The Model is validated by comparing the results of the model with the manually calculated head loss using Hazen-Williams equation which helps in evaluating the reliability and suitability of the model.

Water is the basic need of all living being of world. Demand of water is increase day by day. Water supply system is a system of engineered hydraulic and components which provide water supply. For the development of nation, water distribution network are very important for development of an area as they serve many purposes in addition to provision of water for human consumption. The water distribution network plays a virtual role in preserving and providing desirable life quality to the public, of which reliability of supply is the major component. It is difficult to provide safe water to the rural people in sufficient quantity, quality and at satisfactory pressure head with achieving economy constraint. EPANET software is used to design and analyze the multi village supply system with reference to technical sustainability. EPANET is computer program that performs extended period simulation of hydraulic behavior within pressurized pipe network. The study presents the hydraulic analysis of pipe line network of Punagam area near Surat city using EPANET 2.0. The area has 600.83 Ha area and 2, 22,252 Population (2016). Source supplies water to city by 109 junction having 144 Pipes divided in two different zones. The water from this source is taken via network of pipes to the GSR (Ground Services Reservoir) across the area. The water from these GSR is then pumped to the Adjacent ESRs (Elevated Storage Reservoirs) during the supply hours and water is supply to the area by gravity. Simulation has been carried out for hydraulic parameter such as had pressure and flow rate. The result obtained verified that the pressure at all junction and the flows with their velocities at all pipes are feasible enough to provide adequate water to the network of study area. The findings will help to understand the pipelines system of the study area in a better way. The study also deals with the future demand of the area.

The current study, titled "Continuous Water Distribution Network Analysis Using Epanet Software in Ambaji: A Case Study of Ambaji," was conducted with the express goal of effective design, development, and analysis of water distribution networks and systems using EPANET software. The current data on the water distribution system was obtained from the Ambaji taluka Panchayat for this investigation. Three methods were used to forecast Ambaji's population for the following three decades: Arithmetic Increase Method, Geometric Increase Method, and Incremental Increase Method. The expected population's water requirement for the following three decades was also calculated. The elevation of nodes and pipe length were recorded for 148 nodes and an equal number of pipes using a Google Earth image of Ambaji. The findings of data analysis in EPANET Software revealed that there is less head loss, which is critical for maintaining the constant pressure required for Ambaji's continuous water supply system.

The main objective of this project is to study and design the water distribution network of GUDIVADA TOWN using EPANET software. The population rise of GUDIVADA TOWN by2041 is forecasted through different methods. The population forecasted by using the incremental increase method is taken into consideration in this project. The EPANET software uses Newton-Raphson method for the analysis of the flow of water in the pipe networks. The requirements for this study includes: map of GUDIVADA TOWN, Population and also the elevation of different nodes. The GUDIVADA TOWN map was extracted from Google earth Pro. The node elevations are also taken from Google earth pro software. The water demand was calculated based on the density of population. The water distribution network in the GUDIVADA TOWN consists of 10 Elevated Service Reservoirs, each serving a particular area. The pipe material used for the entire network system is made from cast iron with a roughness coefficient of 100. The duration of water supply is from 5am to 7am. Raw water is drawn from surface source and is sent into a treatment plant. Treated water is supplied to the community.

Water Scarcity is a very severe problem across the world, one of the main factors is improper distribution of water and careless use of water by people, this is only going to be more severe in future as population and needs of the world rises. Many countries have increased deployment of smart water meters to monitor water usage and tried convincing people to not use water in a careless manner but have not been successful yet. This research paper presents the development and implementation of a smart water meter (SWM) prototype for household water consumption measurement. The SWM utilizes Wi-Fi or Long Range (LoRa) technology to transmit data and is integrated with Citizen Id (SSN) to centralize water distribution, and help detect water theft. Additionally, the meter incorporates SARIMA forecasting to predict water consumption based on past usage trends on the edge. The water consumption data can be accessed through a web and Android application, and an integrated billing system has been developed to provide users with information about their current water usage. The machine learning model was trained and tested on the water consumption dataset by DAIAD. The DAIAD dataset consists of hourly water consumption time series for 1,007 randomly selected consumers from the AMAEM (Association of Energy and Water Management) utility in Alicante, Spain, spanning from January 2015 to May 2017, totaling 16,857,056 measurements. The whole system was tested by installing it in a house and the forecasting model achieved an accuracy of 74%.
