Measured Water Temperature Characteristics in a Pipeline Distribution System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
YesThis paper describes the design, development, deployment and performance assessment of a prototype system for monitoring the 'health' of a water distribution network based on the temperature distribution and time-dependent variations in temperature ...

Economic Analysis of Pressure Management in Water Distribution Networks [PDF]

open access: yesآب و فاضلاب, 2020
Pressure management (PM) is one of the most effective methods of leakage management in water distribution networks (WDNs). In addition to reducing leakage, it provides many benefits for water utilities.

Water Distribution Networks Optimization Using Disjunctive Generalized Programming

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2019
Water Distribution Networks (WDN) are systems of water distribution used in industrial processes and urban centers. The optimal WDN design can be very effective in saving energy, specifically in pumping service, to carry water to nodes of demand, at ...

Competent genetic-evolutionary optimization of water distribution systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
A genetic algorithm has been applied to the optimal design and rehabilitation of a water distribution system. Many of the previous applications have been limited to small water distribution systems, where the computer time used for solving the problem ...

Optimal design of water distribution systems based on entropy and topology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A new multi-objective evolutionary optimization approach for joint topology and pipe size design of water distribution systems is presented. The algorithm proposed considers simultaneously the adequacy of flow and pressure at the demand nodes; the ...

Backup Design Optimization for Water Distribution Networks

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings
Rapidly growing cities need significant extensions to their water distribution networks to fulfil the water demands of the population. The design of such systems is still challenging to optimise between the robustness/reliability/vulnerability and the ...

Predicting Contamination Spreading in Water Distribution Networks

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings
High-quality drinking water is an essential need of every modern settlement. Typical analysis applies the EPANET to calculate the water age and the chlorine distribution. However, it cannot cope with diffusion or three-dimensional effects.
