EPyT-Flow: A Toolkit for Generating Water DistributionNetwork Data

This work introduces EPyT-Flow, an open-source Python package building on top of EPyT for facilitating water distribution network (WDN) simulations.EPyT-Flow provides a high-level interface for the easy generation of hydraulic and water quality scenario data.Additionally, it provides access to low-level functions of EPANET and EPANET-MSX for hydraulic and water quality modeling respectively.To accelerate research in WDN management, EPyT-Flow provides easy access to popular benchmark data sets for event detection and localization, and an environment for developing and testing feedback control algorithms.
