Planning, Design and Modeling of Water Distribution System Using EPANET (Post NSE Conference Batch)

BACKGROUND

The 7th Batch and Post NSE Conference training on Planning Design and Modeling of Water Distribution System Using EPANET will hold 24th - 25th November at Chelsea Hotel. This training is to enable Engineers who are coming to NSE conference this November to have the opportunity of participating in these trainings.

ABOUT EPANET

EPANET is software that models water distribution piping systems. EPANET performs extended period simulation of the water movement and quality behaviour within pressurized pipe networks of any size and capacity.

TRAINING OBJECTIVES

The objective of the training is to teach participants the basics of planning, designing and modelling of water demand, and distribution using of EPANET. Participants will also learn the fundamentals of practical design of any water reticulation system from first principle.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

The course is designed for professional researchers, civil engineers, mechanical engineers, project managers, water resource consultants, and infrastructure consultants in the water resources sector.

COURSE BACKGROUND

The course training materials are drawing from the Infrastructure Planning (MIP) and Water Resources Management (WAREM) Masters Course Modules of the University of Stuttgart, Germany.

CLASS SIZE

Maximum class size is 10 participants per batch. The intent is to make the training a hands-on experience for the participant with videos, case studies and real practical cases. At the end of the training, participants are expected to be able to plan, design and model water distribution system of any magnitude using EPANET.
