Potential reduction of leakage volume by combining dynamic pressure management and energy recovery in ValenciaGuarachi Quiñones, AlejandraSánchez Briones, CarmenPérez Lleó, AndrossMartínez-Solano, F.

Currently, pressure regulation in water supply networks consists of managing pressure of district metered areas (DMAs) to ensure a sufficient supply to users, being traditionally carried out by reducing excessive pressures, and therefore diminishing water losses. The most basic form of regulation is to maintain a constant pressure at the inlet of the DMAs by means of a pressure reducing valve (PRV).

This modification of the set point in the PRV involves the movement of a mechanism, requiring a constant energy source. This work proposes the incorporation of an energy recovery system in the distribution network by installing small water turbines at the inlet of the DMA in order to obtain the necessary energy to feed the dynamic regulation equipment, coming the energy required from the network itself. In a complementary way it is also proposed to install a solar photovoltaic system at the inlet of the DMAs. The case study proposed is the water distribution system of the city of Valencia, where four DMAs will be selected for the analysis of the dynamic sectorization.

This parameter is one of the criteria selections for the pilot DMAs. For each DMA, a hydraulic model will be calibrated for the subsequent analysis of the pressure regulation enabling to evaluate the alternatives of dynamic pressure management: by time control, flow control and critical point control.

[EN] The main objective of a drinking water distribution network is to supply all consumption points with the quantity of water demanded under sufficient pressure and quality conditions.
