Valve control regulation for reducing leakage --; Managing Water Distribution Systems to Reduce Energy Costs --; 8. Energy audit of a water system network --; 9. Pump scheduling for reducing energy costs --; Reliability, Risk Analysis and Rehabilitation --; 10. Analytical and simulation models for reliability analysis in water distribution systems --; 11. Hydraulic performance and rehabilitation strategies. The use of levels-ofservice and performance indices as decision support tools --; 12. Effects of pipe failures on water distribution networks --; 13. Optimum design and reliability in water distribution systems --; 14. Effect of transient operations on the reliability of hydraulic systems --; 15. Reliability and expected use of dynamic devices in a water distribution system --; 16. Water quality modeling in pipe networks --; 17. Modeling water quality changes in distribution systems: A U.S. perspective.
Two of the main concerns in respect of water supply systems are their efficiency and their reliability, which are fully discussed in the present book, grouped into five sections: 1. Fundamentals. 2. Leakage Detection in Networks. 3. Network Management: Leakage Control. 4. Managing Water Distribution Systems to Reduce Energy Costs. 5. Reliability, Risk Analysis and Rehabilitation. A well balanced approach has been achieved by inviting contributors from academia as well as consultancies and water supply companies. Audience: Water supply engineers in companies and consultancies, civil engineers interested in water supply systems. This book can also be used in courses on efficiency and reliability of water supply systems.
