Dr. William James

I read your e-mail in the epanet users list about the several books of hydraulic, hydrology, urban hydraulic etc.

I work in Empresas Publicas of Medellin in the Water Planning Division and in this moment I am working in a study that object is planning capacity of water storage tanks in distribution networks.

In our case normally use the 40% of the demand mean in a day to calculate the storage volume, this criteria include the variations in the demand and reserve storage for emergencies. I think that technical advances on this subject have been modest.

My question is if you know some papers of journals or books about this theme.

I like to know, What is the situation when the water storage tank is supply from pumps. What reserve do I need.

Thanks, best regards
