Calculated parameters for the reliability of the ring water distribution network with account of the changed water consumption rate
Summary
The water distribution network of a community is part of the water supply system and provides for the distribution of water upon the facilities and supply of water to consumers. One of the main indicators of the operation of a water distribution network is its reliability. Boundary parameters of the reliability of the network operation can be considered the operating time of the network in normal and emergency conditions. Due to the decrease in actual water consumption in populated areas, the water consumption in sections of the water distribution network decreases; therefore, the reliability indicators of its operation also change. Besides, with the introduction of the revised edition of CP 31.13330.2021, the calculated values of the water consumption in the network have decreased significantly, since the water consumption rates have been reduced by more than 15%. In accordance with these data, the reliability indicators of the water distribution network were calculated.
