DESIGN OF WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM FOR SUSTAINABLE WATER MANAGEMENT FOR FEMALE HOSTEL IN ABUAD

OLUWADARE JOSHUA OYEBODE

Abstract


In order to fulfil the water demand of the continuously growing population, it is essential to provide the sufficient and adequate distribution of water through the designed network of pipes. This work highlights the process carried out on design of water supply system for one of the ABUAD female hostels with the help of all this information the design of the water supply scheme for the area with the help of software “EPANET”.  The general features of the area like information about the main water source, population of the area, demand of water, requirement of the pumps, distribution network and water tanks are essential for efficient design of water distribution system. This design of the water supply scheme for proper supply of water is efficient to meet the daily requirement of water in this area.

This project helps in the efficient design of water distribution system using a software called EPANET for quick and efficient result.
