A Bilevel Mixed Integer Linear Programming Model for Valves Location in Water Distribution Systems
The positioning of valves on the pipes of a Water Distribution System (WDS) is a core decision in the design of the isolation system of a WDS. When closed, valves permit to isolate a small portion of the network, so called a sector, which can be de-watered for maintenance purposes at the cost of a supply disruption. However, valves have a cost so their number is limited, and their position must...
متن کاملOptimal Control Pressure for Leakage Minimization in Water Distribution Systems Using Imperialist Competitive Algorithm
One of the key factors affecting leakage in water distribution systems is network pressure management by putting Pressure Reduce Valves (PRV) in the flow path and optimal regulation of these vales in water networks. This study aimed at investigating optimal pressure management problems so as to minimize leakage in water distribution networks. To do so, an approach was proposed for both optimal ...
متن کاملAn ASP Approach for the Optimal Placement of the Isolation Valves in a Water Distribution System
Several design issues of Water Distribution Systems can be represented as combinatorial optimization problems, and then addressed by means of opportune techniques and technologies available in Computational Logic and Operational Research. My Ph.D. Thesis relates to achieve (near-)optimal solutions to such real-life problems either by exploiting potentialities of existing techniques and by devel...
متن کاملAn ASP Approach for the Valves Positioning Optimization in a Water Distribution System
Positioning of valves is a real-life issue in Water Distribution System design and, currently, it is usually addressed by hand by hydraulic engineers, or by means of genetic algorithms, that give no assurance of optimality. Since a given valves placement identifies a sectorization of the WDS in several isolable portions, the valves positioning problem can be seen as a variant of the well known ...
متن کاملInfluence of Pipeline Operating Pressure on Value Setting of Automatic Control Valves at Different Pressure Drop Rates
When a natural gas pipeline ruptures, the adjacent upstream and downstream automatic control valves (ACV) should close quickly to prevent leakage or explosion. The differential pressure set point (DPS) at each valve location is the main criteria for value setting in ACV actions. If the DPS is not properly adjusted, the ACV may mistakenly close or it may not take any actions at a proper ti...
