We all know that when we're designing water projects in EPANET Software, modeling rectangular Water Tanks may seem not possible as we need to have "tank diameter"! In other words, by default, only circular tanks are supported in EPANET!

BUT in reality, it's not always that we'll be dealing with circular tanks! sometimes we might find ourselves in a situation that we need to model or design water projects with rectangular water tanks!


So the equation is, do we have a diameter in rectangular water tanks? NO! if NO then how can we model such a tank in EPANET? Well, this is something that we are going to cover in today's EPANET tutorial!


Thank you for watching!
