Abstract
Bulk water supply systems generally consist of a source of water, a conveyor (feeder pipe, canal etc.) and a storage facility. Designing bulk water supply systems includes the sizing of these components to ensure a functional system...The study follows the same methods that have been used by researchers at the University of Johannesburg in recent years. A Monte Carlo simulation method is used through the use of the Mocasim II software.
