| Abstract | A Microcomputer-based interactive software used for the
analysis and design of water supply distribution network was
developed. The applications of a digitizer tablet and
lightpen were used to help the user in handling geographical
data and to make the menu selection. The analysis of the
flow in the network adopts the Linear Pipe Iteration method
because of its fast conveyance.
The developed software consists of a subsystem for input the map and select the pipe size for the network into a file , a subsystem to process the analysis of the flow, and a subsystem to modify/change the basic data for reanalysis
of the network. This capability enables a user to simulate
different types of network configuration.
The software Has developed in BASIC language for the
IBM PC. The computed flowrates were compared with the
reference values and the difference between these values are found to be in the range of 1% to 6%. However, the solution
requires more iterations to converge than it was described
by WOOD(l972 ) . |
