EXPRESSION OF INTEREST FOR CONSULTANCY FOR EPANET SOFTWARE APPLICATION TRAINING FOR WASH PROFESSIONALS
REF NO.: 43/NRC-NG/CLT/2023
EPANET is a software application used throughout the world to model water distribution systems. It was developed as a tool for understanding the movement and fate of drinking water constituents within distribution systems and can be used for many different types of applications in distribution systems analysis.
Today, engineers and consultants use EPANET to design and size new water infrastructure, retrofit existing aging infrastructure, optimize operations of tanks and pumps, reduce energy usage, investigate water quality problems, and prepare for emergencies. With EPANET, users can perform extended-period simulations of the hydraulic and water quality behavior within pressurized pipe networks, which consist of pipes, nodes (junctions), pumps, valves, storage tanks, and reservoirs. It can be used to track the flow of water in each pipe, the pressure at each node, the height of the water in each tank, a chemical concentration, the age of the water, and source tracing throughout the network during a simulation period.
The objective of the ToR is to highlight the need and justify the request for urgent support of Nigeria’s WASH sector towards building the capacity of WASH actors and strengthening the system for effective and better delivery of water through the distribution system. The ToR includes.
- Clarifying roles and responsibilities
- Enabling commitments from various stakeholders
- Set the pace for the mobilization of teams and resources.
