Mixed Simulation-optimization Technique for Complex Water Resource System Analysis under Drought Conditions
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper illustrates a Decision Support System (DSS) for multi-reservoir water resource systems, named WARGI (Water Resources system optimization aided by Graphical Interface). WARGI was upgraded in the SEDEMED II Project to implement a mixed approach that uses optimization and simulation techniques to select the best combination of proactive and reactive measures under drought conditions. The DSS aims to predict in advance the consequences of management assumptions in a predefined system configuration. The optimization module considers future hydrological and demand scenarios to modify the set of decision variables to be adopted by the simulation module. Lastly, WARGI’s application to the water resource system of Southern Sardinia (Italy) is illustrated.

متن کاملImproved Implicit Stochastic Optimization Technique for Multireservoir Water Systems under Drought Conditions
Drought is a creeping phenomenon, making its onset and end difficult to determine. Damages from droughts can exceed those resulting from any other natural hazard, although it is difficult to assign a monetary value to them. In the Mediterranean area a severe drought period occurred over the years 2000-2002 and economic losses from that drought exceeded 250 million euros in Sardinia (Italy) (sou...
متن کاملOptimization of the PCM-integrated solar domestic hot water system under different thermal stratification conditions
Many researchers have investigated how to increase the overall efficiency of solar-driven thermal systems. Several key parameters, such as collector efficiency and storage tank characteristics, may impose some constraints on the annual solar fraction (ASF) of such systems. In this paper, the behaviour of integrating the phase change material (PCM) in SDHW systems is modelled and optimized n...
