Systems in this section are found in the user training guides for EPANET and KYPIPE. They were created between 1980 and 1995. The KYPIPE examples are simple artificial networks while the EPANET examples are more complex and based on actual distribution systems.
-
01 KYPIPE Example 1
The KYPIPE Example 1 system is a simple and hypothetical network first used by Wood in 1980 as part of the KYPIPE user’s manual. The system has a total demand of 3.5 MGD, two reservoirs, one pump, and 0.88 miles of pipe. It is classified as distribution branch by Hwang & Lansey (2017) and looped by Hoagland et al. (2015).
-
02 KYPIPE Example 2
The KYPIPE Example 2 system is a simple and hypothetical network first used by Wood in 1980 as part of the KYPIPE user’s manual. The system has a total demand of 9.0 MGD, three reservoirs, one pump, and 5.9 miles of pipe. It is classified as transmission dense-loop by Hwang & Lansey (2017) and gridded by Hoagland et al. (2015).

03 KYPIPE Example 5
The KYPIPE Example 5 system is a simple and hypothetical network first used by Wood in 1980 as part of the KYPIPE user’s manual. The system has a total demand of 17 MGD, two reservoirs, one pump, and 14.4 miles of pipe. It is classified as transmission dense-loop by Hwang & Lansey (2017) and looped by Hoagland et al. (2015).
-
04 KYPIPE Example 8
The KYPIPE Example 8 system is a simple and hypothetical network first used by Wood in 1980 as part of the KYPIPE user’s manual. The system has a total demand of 15.5 MGD, two reservoirs, three thanks, two pump, and 13.1 miles of pipe. It is classified as transmission dense-loop by Hwang & Lansey (2017) and looped by Hoagland et al. (2015).
-
05 EPANET Net 2
The EPANET Net 2 system is based on a small region of the Cherry Hill/Brushy Plains distribution system and was use by Rossman et al. in 1994 looking at chlorine decay. The system has a total demand of 0.90 MGD, one tank and 6.8 miles of pipe. It is classified as distribution dense-grid by Hwang & Lansey (2017) and branched by Hoagland et al. (2015).
-
06 EPANET Net 3
The EPANET Net 3 system is based on the North Marin Water District in Novato, CA and was first used by Clark et al. in 1994 as part of a water quality study. The system has a total demand of 2.11 MGD, one reservoir, three tanks, two pumps, and 6.8 miles of pipe. It is classified as transmission dense-loop by Hwang & Lansey (2017) and gridded by Hoagland et al. (2015).
