“…The fact is that 'in water supply, pumping systems represent major operational expenditure and account for the greatest use of energy' [13], which was confirmed in [14] and [15]. The set functional dependencies of the operating regime would significantly contribute to achieving the objective of economic and operational work sustainability of the water supply systems.…”

“…The idea of considering a planning horizon consisting of several construction phases was also investigated [27]; this allows planners to actively manage the configuration of the network over time as new information becomes available. The flexible design strategy determines the value of the decision variables for the first phase and for several scenarios that arise from the possible different decision paths that can be followed in the future.…”

The traditional approach for the optimization of water distribution networks (WDNs) does not always lead to consistent solutions from an operational point of view. The latest optimization algorithms identify solutions that are “the best solutions” in mathematical terms but that can be less than robust against changes in operating conditions, resulting in the worst case in hydraulically infeasible configurations. Thus, this paper aims to provide a methodology that can synthesize the network performance capabilities under the change in operating conditions with two convergent strategies. The first consists of the implementation of new performance indices (PIs), the demand deficit and the pressure range, and the evaluation of their ability to criticality highlight in operating conditions. The second is the introduction of a new approach to weight the infeasible solutions in the final result, which are those inconsistent with the real hydraulic network performances. The analysis shows that the use of these new indices makes it easier to understand the behavior of the network and to identify any weaknesses. This is true if these indices consider the hydraulically inconsistent solutions that may arise from the simulations of different operation conditions; otherwise, results that poorly represent the real behavior of the network would be obtained.

“…Also, [7] show that with the possible increase in the power of the pumping station, it is necessary to ensure a sufficient volume of water storage, because of the storage of increased amounts of water. Pumping stations represent the highest operational costs in the water supply system, as confirmed in [2], [9] and [10]. In order to reach a general conclusion about the need for water during the intermittent and constant water supply, it is necessary to analyze or determine the water consumption regime for the poor areas, as well as for smaller and larger cities [11].…”

In this paper, the water pumping regime, as well as the water consumption regime with regard to the required quantities and the example of water consumption, with an emphasis on changes in water volume, are examined. This aims to show the functioning of the regime of water consumption, water pumping, as well as finding functional relationships between the mentioned sizes and the volume of the water reservoir. The analysis focuses on questions such as how and in what way, changes in the onset and duration of pumping, as well as different water consumption regimes affect the size of the reservoir volume. The entire analysis in this paper was done to develop a scientifically innovative, but also applicable mathematical model, which is a contribution to the profession and a good basis for further scientific research to improve the operation of the urban water supply system.
