Hydraulic Modeling and Water Distribution Optimization in Corregimiento Kuna Nega, Panama City, Panama
Öffentlich DepositedHerunterladbarer Inhalt
open in viewerIn Corregimiento Kuna Nega, Panamanians do not have a reliable source of potable water – a constitutionally-protected human right. We worked with IDAAN, the government water authority, to develop a hydraulic model of Kuna Nega’s current water network to optimize distribution and increase access. To build our model, we gathered data on flow rate, pressure, and elevation, among other variables, in the field. We designed a more efficient water delivery schedule, providing enhanced service to users for longer periods. Finally, we provided recommendations on additional infrastructure to extend service to more residents.
