Analysis of Demand and Distribution of Blue Water in the Malikussaleh University Medical Building Using EPANET Software

Abstract:

Over time, the increase in population is directly proportional to the increase in water demand, this will cause problems in the future, namely the water crisis. In the Malikussaleh University medical building, clean water distribution planning is the main focus of the research. With the increase in the number of students from year to year, the demand for water is also increasing. To find out how much water is needed for each user of the building. From the results of the calculation analysis, the total water demand per day is 2,910 liters / day. The maximum water demand in the building occurs in period II (08.00-16.00) WIB which is 2,328 liters/8 hours or 0.000080833m3 /s. In this study, it is assisted by the EPANET 2.0 software program, from the results of the EPANET 2.0 software simulation, it shows that the distribution of water flowing through the pipe from the tank to the point of discharge is normal, there are some minor water losses at the intersection / branching of the pipe caused by the friction of water in the pipe, turns and valves. The highest water velocity occurs from the pump point to the tank which is 4.65 m/s.
