Thanks for your valuable videos. Do you know how Epanet determine the flow rate of a pump during simulation? For example, in a network with both a tank and a pump flows coming from tank and pump should be equal to total demand, but pump flow may take infinitely many values as long as the demand condition is satisfied, right? Which value is chosen as the pump flow rate? Appreciate it if you can answer. Thanks again.
"...Do you know how Epanet determine the flow rate of a pump during simulation?" ==== As designers, we normally optimise our model (for the parameters like Velocity, pressure etc.) in such a way that the model finds the Optimal/Best operation point (H, Q) on the pump curve for the pump to operate. So, from what I know, you as a designer must first set the required pump flow rate then, for centrifugal pumps, EPANET use the pump curve to attain the required pump flow rate after the model is fully optimised for parameters like V, P and unit headloss!
On my epanet when I insert the flow on pump curve it doesn’t appear on the map For example the flow that I insert on pump curve is 4.12 but when I run that system the flow is 0.00 on those node and also on tank What can I do to solve that problem
If you dont get any error after running your model then Check the units format that you are using and make sure epanet is set to use the same settings! If you are using L/s then make sure you set L/s on epanet as well..
This is very informative. Thank you
You are welcome and Thank you so much🙏

From where you have taken the data?
Been a while! Anyways I remember we did field survey then we digitized our routes in google earth.. that's as far as i can remember!
@@HydroinformaticsAcademy thanks!
How is relative viscosity in EPANET is defined?
