Contaminant Fate and Transport Modeling in Distribution Systems: EPANET-C

Typically, computer-based tools built on mathematical models define the time-series behavior of contaminants, in dissolved or colloidal form, within spatial boundaries water distribution systems (WDS). EPANET-MSX has become a standard tool for WDS quality modeling due to its collaboration with EPANET. The critical challenges applying include conceptualizing exchanges among multiple reacting constituents domain and developing scientific descriptions these exchanges. Moreover, complicated user interface, application demands programming skills from software engineering viewpoint. present study aims overcome by novel tool, EPANET-C. Via built-in customizable conceptual models’ directories, EPANET-C simplifies users, even those lacking expertise. Due flexibility, can de facto both industry academia.
