A Computer Program For Optimal Control Of Water Supply Pump Stations: Development And Testing, Donald V. Chase
A Computer Program For Optimal Control Of Water Supply Pump Stations: Development And Testing, Donald V. Chase
Civil and Environmental Engineering and Engineering Mechanics Faculty Publications
This report presents an optimal control methodology designed to reduce the electrical consumption and operating costs at Army water supply pumping stations.
The methodology, contained in a computer program called Optimal Control of Pumping Stations (OCOPS), enables water utility managers and operators to reduce the electrical consumption at pumping stations while maintaining adequate storage and system pressures for fire protection. OCOPS can be applied to any water distribution system and is not limited to any number of pumps, pump stations, or storage tanks within the system.
The optimal control strategy developed is based on electricity unit charges, but can be …

Techniques For Improving Energy Efficiency At Water Supply Pumping Stations, Lindell Ormsbee, Thomas M. Walski, Donald V. Chase, Wayne W. Sharp
Civil and Environmental Engineering and Engineering Mechanics Faculty Publications
This report describes the application of methods presented in Engineer Technical Letter (ETL) "Energy Efficiency at Water Supply Pumping Stations'' to the Washington, DC, and vicinity water system.
Both the ETL and this report were prepared under the Water System Operation, Maintenance and Rehabilitation Work Unit (CWIS 31794) of the Water Supply and Conservation Research Program. The technical monitors for this program in the Office, Chief of Engineers, were Mr. James Ballif (DAEN-ECE-B) and Mr. Robert Daniel (DAEN-CWP-D). The work was conducted at the US Army Engineer (USAE) Waterways Experiment Station (WES), Vicksburg, Miss., and the University of Kentucky (UK) …

Technical Report El-88-18: Reliability Of The Federally Owned Water Main System, Donald V. Chase, Lindell Ormsbee, Thomas M. Walski
Civil and Environmental Engineering and Engineering Mechanics Faculty Publications
The reliability of the Federally Owned Water Main (FOWM) system was examined, and recommendations to improve system reliability are made. The existing FOWM system is very dependent upon three different pipe links.
The first and most important link is the Francis Scott Key Bridge river crossing. This link carries the entire FOWM supply, and if taken out of service, an alternate means of supply must be used. At present, the only alternate source of supply is through interconnections with the adjacent Arlington County, Virginia, system.
The second vital link is the 30-in. steel main which extends from the Key Bridge …
