Abstract

Prevalence of a proper Domestic Water Supply Network, could be coined as a fundamental requirement for any borough for its proper functioning and survival. Even today, many villages including Chityala, Nandigudem, Vadalakunta, Bhimolu, Saggonda in Andhra Pradesh State are suffering adversely by the absence of this network. So, the Government of Andhra Pradesh is considerate to provide a suitable Domestic Water Supply Network for all these villages, to put forth this issue, through Andhra Pradesh Water Supply Scheme.  Therefore, this study aims to design a simple and economical the water supply network, with a high end precision and simplicity, in Chityala, Nandigudem, Vadalakunta and Bhimolu villages using EPANET 2.0 Software based on their DGPS Survey Data and Population Data.  The designs are proposed based on the Hydraulic Parameters that are enumerated using the same software. Also, by calculating the minimum Volume of water lost as Headloss, using Hazen-William’s Equation.
