EPANET is a software tool provided by the EPA (Environemt Protection Agency). This is the description of this project as found at EPANET:

Application for Modeling Drinking Water Distribution Systems

EPANET is a software application used throughout the world to model water distribution systems. It was developed as a tool for understanding the movement and fate of drinking water constituents within distribution systems, and can be used for many different types of applications in distribution systems analysis.

Today, engineers and consultants use EPANET to design and size new water infrastructure, retrofit existing aging infrastructure, optimize operations of tanks and pumps, reduce energy usage, investigate water quality problems, and prepare for emergencies. It can also be used to model contamination threats and evaluate resilience to security threats or natural disasters.

Open Water Analytics - OWA

This is the self-description of this project as found at Open Water Analytics:

Open Water Analytics is the home of the community projects for EPANET and SWMM, and related tools and technologies. We are an open community for the exchange of information and ideas related to computing and analysis in the water & wastewater industries. This informal collective in an umbrella that covers many groups and projects; members with varying affiliations work together to craft the current and future development of these mission-critical software tools.

OWA-Stormwater-Management-Model

Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) is a computer model used to simulate how rainfall becomes runoff and moves through urban drainage systems.

It was developed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and is one of the most widely used tools worldwide for stormwater, sewer, and urban drainage analysis.

So while EPANET answers "How does water flow through a drinking water distribution network?", SWMM answers "What happens when it rains?"
