Abstract:Water supply system that provide safe water to customers should be designed to reduce construction cost and management cost. Pipe diameter is a key aspect of water distribution system since it affects design cost and friction loss. This study applied multi-objective optimization algorithm coupled with EPANET hydraulic solver for minimizing design cost and friction loss energy to water distribution system.
Non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-Ⅱ) was used as an optimization technique. The hydrauli… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
