Discussion of “Dealing with Zero Flows in Solving the Nonlinear Equations for Water Distribution Systems” by Sylvan Elhay and Angus R. Simpson
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Experimental Analysis of Hydraulic Solver Convergence with Genetic Algorithms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A procedure for the experimental convergence evaluation of a hydraulic-network solver is proposed, based on using genetic algorithms to search for network parameter values that maximize the number of iterations of the ...
Pseudotransient Continuation-Based Steady State Solver: Extension to Zero Flow Rates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents and discusses an extension of the pseudotransient continuation-based steady state solver for hydraulic networks proposed previously to the case of zero flow rates. The original solver, which reduces the ...
Pseudotransient Continuation Method in Extended Period Simulation of Water Distribution Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents and discusses a new static solver that implements the pseudotransient continuation method for the quasi-steady state analysis, or extended-period simulation of water distribution systems. The implementation ...
Dynamic Pressure-Dependent Simulation of Water Distribution Networks Considering Volume-Driven Demands Based on Noniterative Application of EPANET 2
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: EPANET 2 software has been widely used among researchers and practitioners from its inception for hydraulic analysis. This technical note presents a method to simulate pressure-dependent volume-based demands in a single ...
