for the Design, Simulation and Management of Water
System Pipe Networks

Using the industry - proven EPANET ™ Hydraulic
Analysis Engine

EPANET’s
water quality simulator uses a Lagrangian
time-based approach to track the fate of discrete
parcels of water as they move along pipes
and mix together at junctions between fixed-length
time steps. These water quality time steps
are typically much shorter than the hydraulic
time step (e.g., minutes rather than hours)
to accommodate the short times of travel that
can occur within pipes.

following Tasks can be performed: |
|
|
|
| HydrauliCAD
allows the AutoCAD platform to access the Epanet
calculation engine to perform water concentration,
aging & deterioration analysis as follows: |
- model
the movement of a non-reactive tracer material
through the network over time
- model
the movement and fate of a reactive material
as it grows (e.g., a disinfection byproduct)
or decays (e.g., chlorine residual) with
time
- model
the age of water throughout a network
- track
the percent of flow from a given node reaching
all other nodes over time
- model
reactions both in the bulk flow and at the
pipe wall
- allow
growth or decay reactions to proceed up
to a limiting concentration
- employ
global reaction rate coefficients that can
be modified on a pipe-by-pipe basis
- allow
for time-varying concentration or mass inputs
at any location in the network
- model
storage tanks as being either complete mix,
plug flow, or two-compartment reactors.
