Network Subsystems for Water Distribution System Optimization
A least-cost optimization of a water distribution system (WDS) results in a branched network if some system reliability measures are not considered. Using an explicit level of system redundancy is one way to enhance reliability in the WDS network. This approach consists of first dividing the network into subsystems. Then, during the optimization stage, the subsystems are optimized simultaneously by demanding each one to maintain some level of service. Which pair of subsystems is ultimately selected determines the outcome of the optimization problem. However, there is little if no literature on the optimization of the selection of a pair of subsystems. This study addresses both subsystem and component sizing optimization in designing a level-1 redundant network. Candidate subsystems are enumerated using graph theory where st-numbering for the network is assigned first, and then the backups are generated following the decrement and increment orders of the node’s st-numbering.
