| description | Energy plays an increasingly important role in human life. Population growth and shortage of energy warrant optimal utilization of our limited resources. Pumping stations typically run on electric power and economical use of the power is desirable. Serial pumping stations are often required when the pipeline is long or when the required pumping head is too large to be handled by the existing single pumps. In this paper, a new PSO-based model is proposed for optimal operation of serial pumping stations. The proposed model is applied to a real-world situation-the water supply system conveying water from Doroudzan Dam to the city of Shiraz. The results are compared with those of the existing operating policies. Comparisons indicate the high capability of the proposed model. |
