Journal ArticleDOI
Simulating Residential Water Demand with a Stochastic End-Use Model
TL;DR: In this article, a water demand end-use model was developed to predict water demand patterns with a small time scale (1 s) and small spatial scale (residence level).
Journal ArticleDOI
Importance of demand modelling in network water quality models: a review
TL;DR: In this article, a stochastic demands-based network water quality model is proposed for assessing water quality in the drinking water distribution system, which is probabilistic in nature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Velocity-based self-cleaning residential drinking water distribution systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a velocity criterion to the conventional design criteria, which leads to a branched lay out of distribution networks, that perform better with respect to water quality, continuity of supply and investment costs.
Stochastic water demand modelling for a better understanding of hydraulics in water distribution networks
TL;DR: In this article, a stochastic model called SIMDEUM was developed to simulate water use in small time scales (1 s) and small spatial scales (per fixture) and its applications in several hydraulic and water quality models in water distribution networks were tested against measurements within these networks.
Journal ArticleDOI
A bottom-up approach of stochastic demand allocation in water quality modelling
TL;DR: In this article, an "all pipes" hydraulic model of a DMA-sized drinking water distribution system with two types of demand allocations was constructed with conventional op-down approach, i.e., a demand multiplier pattern from the booster station is allocated to all demand nodes with a correction factor to account for the average water emand on that node, and a bottom-up approach of demand allocation, each individual home is represented by one demand node with its own tochastic water demand pattern.
