Efficiency and Optimum Decisions using the Simulation of Water Distribution System

The paper presents the process of computer modeling to reconstruct the actual working conditions of the water supply network in Mońki, Białystok county. The calculations enabled to simulate the operation of the network and make decisions affecting the efficiency of the entire system. The EPANET 2.0 computer software, which was created by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), was used in the research. It allows for periodic hydraulic simulations and provides an image of water operation in the pressure pipeline network. The study included the model of the evaluated network in terms of basic quality parameters such as flow velocity, pressure, unit losses, water age and operating conditions during the simulated network failure.
