EPANET...Determining base demand at Nodes

Hi All,

I need to determine the base demand for a network with 17 different nodes, and all we were given as far as variables are:

(1) Population served by each pipe
(2) 250 l/c/d (liters per capita per day)

I'm assuming EPANET does not have a function for pipe demand according to population, only nodal demand. So I was wondering how I would go about determining the base demand for each node.

Additional info:
The network is served by one tank at 400' elevation, and the nodes are all at 0' elevation. I also attached the EPANET file for clarification.

Thanks in advance!
