Design and simulation of an alternative aqueduct network for urban population

Aqueduct systems help to record water consumption, being a connection between nature and the population, allowing water to be transported continuously; a good design of aqueduct networks is necessary to meet the purpose of providing the community with a technical report that can serve as a starting point to carry out a construction of the aqueduct for the public battery. This research presents the simulation of an aqueduct system by means of the epanet software according to the daily maximum flow, pressure, velocities of the distribution network, pumping time, with respect to the different pressures and diameters, diagnosing the routes, nodes, forms of access, restrictions and limitations that may affect the proper functioning of the system; In this way, the advantages and the magnitude of beneficiaries who will have this new access and improved service to meet the needs of the inhabitants are evident, according to the technical requirements of drinking water and sanitation of the technical regulation of the drinking water and basic sanitation sector, where it can be implemented by any public company in the country.
