It has beenĭesigned to satisfy the water requirements for a combination of domestic,Ĭommercial, industrial, and fire-fighting purposes. Water distribution systems (WDS) are a vital part of urban infrastructureĪnd require high investment, operation and maintenance costs. The study concluded that the application of PRVs in the water distribution system as a promising solution for leakage minimization by reducing pressure in the water distribution networks, such as Dilla town. Then, after the pressure reduced by pressure reducing valves (PRVs) average pressure dropped to 44 m, therefore, leakage in average reduced by 24%. An average water distribution pressure in the existing water distribution system was 58 m. Water CAD software was used to evaluate water distribution system, fixed pressure reducing valves (PRV) were installed at the most effective set of water distribution systems to reduced pressure as well as leakage quantities of water.

The means presented in this study is aimed at evaluating water distribution pressure for the minimizing leakages in Dilla town water supply system network. The process of water loss reduction is a basic part to increase the performance of a water supply system. Use OpenFlows WaterGEMS to also run your model from within ArcGIS and for optimization modules (calibration, design, pump scheduling, pipe assessment, SCADA integration, and network simplification).Water loss is a common phenomenon observed in all water distribution systems. OpenFlows WaterCAD is a subset of OpenFlows WaterGEMS. You can also choose to use OpenFlows WaterCAD as a stand-alone application, for additional flexibility.
