EPANET is a software application from the EPA that models water distribution systems, simulating hydraulic and water-quality behavior over time in pipe networks that include pipes, nodes, pumps, storage tanks, and reservoirs. It is used by engineers and consultants to design and size new water infrastructure, retrofit aging systems, optimize operations, reduce energy usage, investigate water-quality problems, and prepare for emergencies, including modeling contamination threats and resilience to security threats or natural disasters. EPANET is public-domain Windows software with open-source development on GitHub, accompanied by manuals, toolkits, and extensions for advanced modeling.
