OPTIMIZATION OF HIGH PREASURE PIPELINE IN THE PRESSURE PIPE OF WATER SUPPLY

Abstract

The water supply system is a set of facilities related to a functional unit with the primary aim of
ensuring sufficient quantities of quality water by the most economical way. Design and implementation
of such systems requires extensive previous research and analysis aimed at finding the optimal solution
of water supply system.
This paper presents an analysis of the pressure pipeline of the water supply system in which discussed
several alternatives with different input parameters. It is shown the influence of the position and the
number of tanks in the system on the basic parameters such as a pressure in the pipeline, power of pump
units and so on. It's analyzed the impact of changes in diameter of the pipe to the hydraulic parameters,
and also to the initial and operating costs of the system. The main aim of the complete analysis is to
establish a uniform depending of the analyzed elements in the system and finding the optimal
parameters and their relationship that provide the most appropriate solution from the technical and
economic aspects.
