ANALYSIS OF EXISTING WATER DISTRIBUTION NETWORK OF ASSOSA TOWN USING WATERGEMES

Abstract

Analysis, Hydraulic performance, Water demand, Water distribution system, Non-revenue water, and water lR decreases from 38 (23.17%) before optimization to 17 (10.37 %) after optimization during minimum flow hours. This study concluded that the existing water distribution network in the study area was not adequate to satisfy the required water demand. The existing system can significantly reduce the demand problem by modifying the existing system like changing old pipes and by optimizing under and oversized pipes. By modifying the existing water supply system and engagement of skilled workers in the enterprise will make the system more acceptable and increase its performance.
