APPENDIX E. DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS
Appendix E provides information on the process used as part of the Water System and Resources Plan (WSRP) to assess PWP’s distribution system capacity
The distribution system capacity analysis used the hydraulic model to evaluate system pressures, adequacy of pressure zones, and reliability. Tables E-1 and E-2 list each scenario run (using the scenario title as listed in the model), demand conditions, pipe set, and purpose for running the scenario under current and future demands. Note that the hydraulic model assumes that the supply portfolio used is unchanged from the baseline described in the WSRP, relying on existing groundwater wells and imported water connections. Figure E-1 provides the resulting hydraulic deficiencies under current conditions, while Figure E-2 provides additional hydraulic deficiencies under future conditions (assuming hydraulic deficiencies under existing conditions are addressed). Both of these figures assume a minimum pipe roughness coefficient of 80.
In addition to the pipeline network assessment performed using hydraulic modeling, a hydraulic assessment was performed to analyze the capacity of reservoirs and booster stations under current and future conditions. This hydraulic assessment was completed using a spreadsheet exercise that incorporated demand within each pressure zone, reservoir storage capacity, booster station capacity, supply inputs within each pressure zone and capacity requirements for reservoirs and booster stations within each pressure zone. Demand and supply within each pressure zone was exported from the hydraulic model. The capacity surplus or deficit was determined within each pressure zone, then any areas of deficit were analyzed to determine whether surplus from higher pressure zones could be used to offset the deficit. Based on this analysis, recommendations were developed for above-ground infrastructure improvements.
Tables E-3 and E-4 provide a summary of the booster station capacity by pressure zone for current and future demands, as well as the service-area wide total, with and without MWD imported water supply. These results indicate that, while some pressure zones show negative values, the service area as a whole has sufficient booster station capacity to provide service to all pressure zones, and that neighboring pressure zones have capacity to support zones with insufficient capacity.
Tables E-5 and E-6 provide a summary of the storage reservoir capacity, indicates that PWP has a surplus storage capacity for the system as a whole. While some individual pressure zones show a storage deficit, most are connected to zones of higher pressure via a pressure sustaining valve (PSV) that allows for the automatic cascading of water from the higher-pressure zone to the lower-pressure zone to meet demand. The only zone with a deficit that isn’t connected to a higher-pressure zone is the Eagle Rock Pressure Zone located in the southwestern part of PWP’s service area.
