Hydrodynamic Principles for Pipeline Planning

TRANSCRIPT

Network Representation

A model is always an approximation of the real world. An important consideration in distribution system modeling is which components will be represented and what approximations are made in representing the components.

The level of representation may be limited by model constraints, cost, time, information availability, or personal preference.

With the increasing power of computers and availability of more powerful simulation models, the general trend is towards more detailed representation.

Model Calibration

Water Quality Modeling

ENERGY MANAGEMENT MODEL

Input:

• Pump efficiency curve

• Rate schedule (pattern)

• Pump operating schedule

Output:

• Percent of time use

• Average energy use over the simulation period

• Cost of use

• Total cost for all pumps
