| description | Water resources play a vital role in supporting urban economic and social development and ecological and environmental protection. Water shortage is a key factor that restricts the high-quality development of cities, while the coordinated and optimized allocation of urban raw water is an important measure to alleviate the water supply–demand imbalance. The current research on urban water supply issues and their underlying causes still needs to be further strengthened. Similarly, the formulation of rules for multi-source and cross-district water supply should pay more attention. This paper proposes a general analytical process consisting of four main stages: problem identification, system generalization, rule formulation, and model construction and solution for the joint optimal scheduling of raw water in a complex urban water supply system. This study investigates the significant water resource wastage and structural water shortage in the reservoirs of Lanxi City. The optimal scheduling plan is proposed by formulating rational rules for inter-district water supply and establishing a multi-source and multi-objective joint optimization scheduling model. Compared to the current independent scheduling scheme and multi-water source joint dispatching scheme based on the current dispatch diagram, the optimal scheduling plan effectively reduced the cumulative water shortage by 68.04 million m<sup>3</sup> and 29.72 million m<sup>3</sup>, respectively, and increased the urban water supply guarantee rate in all districts of the city to over 90%. This study offers valuable insights to urban water resource managers, empowering them to develop optimal multiple water source supply rules that align to the specific characteristics of other case studies. |
