Problem #1Figure 1 shows the pipe network that you will analyze using EPANET and the Hazen-Williams equation in this problem. The Hazen-Williams coefficient (CHw) is 130 for all pipe in the network. Water enters the network at junctions A and F and exits the system at junctions C, D,and H. Table 1 tabulates the required flow rates into and out (i.e., demands) of the network.
