Representing Water Treatment Plant on EPANET
Sanjay_D
How can we represent water treatment plant (WTP) on EPANET model?
Generally, water utilities need a model that represents continuous
flow of water from source to the taap of customers. Starting point of
a WTP is lip of aerator, where pressures are bought to zero. From
aerator, the units are flash mixer, clariflocculator, filters. Pure
water sump (PWS) is the last unit.
I take two tanks to represent WTP, one for aerator and another for
PWS. In tank at aerator, flow is taken from top to bottom.
Can you comment on my method?

Why do you want to model the station itself? What is the objective?
Is it perhaps part of a bigger network and you only need its effects?

tank getting it like a reservoir, even thought you need a detailled
simulation you must do a simplificated model.
Really you don´t need a detailled model (including your WTP) to
simulate your system in EPANET. If you try to do it so only will gain
a head pain.
Excuse my english.

I think your solution is fine. However it is only for information, because, for the model, just tehe level of the last tank defines the head pressure for the net.

Model the WTP as a 'Reservoir' with a fixed head.
Good luck!
