EPANet and Matlab
A visitor that came to this blog from Demetriosֲ Eliades’sֲ web site reminded me of the EPANet and Matlab issue. About 3 years ago I was busy preparing for the Battle of the Water Sensor Networks (BWSN). A few people helped me test and debug the software utilities for the battle. One of them was Philip Jonkergouwֲ from [...]
BackSense – contamination source detection software
BackSense is new methodology to identify the possible sources location and time frame of a contamination that may cause the trigger of a set of water quality sensors that are part of an Early Contamination Warning System (ECWS). The basic idea of BackSense it to identify all the networks nodes that can “reach” a specific [...]
EPANET Programmer’s Toolkit
I have mentioned the EPANET toolkit several times before but didn’t post any information about it yet. The following info is from the toolkit readme file: EPANET is a program that analyzes the hydraulic and water quality behavior of water distribution systems. The EPANET Programmer’s Toolkit is a dynamic link library (DLL) of functions that [...]
EPANET Toolkit adaption to GNU/Linux
Manuel Lֳ³pez-Ibֳ¡ֳ±ez, currently at the School of the Built Environment of Napier University in Edinburgh (UK), adapted the EPANET Toolkit version 2.00.10 to GNU/Linux. A number of new features were added: Calculation of pump switches Saves time of day (in seconds) when a pump changes its status. The vector of pump scheduling is obtained using [...]
OOTEN (Object-Oriented Toolkit for EPANET)
The following information was received from Professor JE (Kobus) van Zyl (Department of Civil and Urban Engineering at the University of Johannesburg): OOTEN (Object-Oriented Toolkit for EPANET) was developed to provide the EPANET Programmers Toolkit functionality in a way that better suits object-oriented programming. There are many advantages to object-oriented programming such as ease of [...]
FireFlow
FireFlow is a Freeware, EPANET based tool, which will calculate the available flow at network junctions while a minimal pressure is kept at demand junctions. FireFlow can run in a “Steady State” mode or perform an “Extended Period Simulation” (EPS). Using the EPS mode you can find how long can a specified flow be delivered? [...]
