| dc.description.abstract | This paper presents a methodology for real-time pump scheduling in water distribution system. The methodology uses an optimizer linked to other two modules: one to predict the hydraulic behavior of the system and another to forecast the demands. A metamodel is used instead of a traditional hydraulic simulator to speed up relevant computations, i.e. evaluations of large number of candidate pump schedules generated during the optimization process. The methodology presented is applied to a real-life water distribution system in Brazil. The results obtained show that the use of metamodel can generate low cost pump schedules in a computationally fast manner. | en_GB |
