Reliability Analysis of Urban Rainwater Harvesting

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to inform decision makers at state and local levels, as well as property owners about the amount of water that can be supplied by rainwater harvesting systems in Texas so that it may be included in any future planning. Reliability of a rainwater tank is important because people want to know that a source of water can be depended on. Performance analyses were conducted on rainwater harvesting tanks for three Texas cities under different rainfall conditions and multiple scenarios to… Show more

“…Daily time series provide similar results to hourly time series, while monthly time series generate inaccurate results [ [63] , [64] , [65] ]. Different hydrological parameters like volumetric reliability or water-saving efficiency [ 51 , [66] , [67] , [68] , [69] ]; time-based reliability [ 41 , 52 , [70] , [71] , [72] , [73] ]; overflow ratio [ 18 ]; detention time [ 18 , 62 ]; water saving efficiency [ 74 , 75 ] are calculated to assess the performance and reliability of RWH system.…”

“…This information allowed to determine the storage-reliability-yield (SRY) relationships and how large the RWT should be. Lawrence and Lopes (2016) determined the reliability of RWT in a performance analysis for three Texas cities under different rainfall conditions and multiple scenarios. The previous highlights demonstrate the importance of optimizing RWT sizing.…”

“…There are many investigations in regard to rainwater harvesting in distinct regions with different climates. For instance, the study of Lade and Oloke [6] in Nigeria, Monjaiang et al [7] in Thailand, Lawrence and Lopes [8] in the USA, Lani et al [9] in Malaysia, Sakson [10] in Poland, Zhang and Jing [11] in China, Matos et al [12] in Portugal, and Moniruzzaman and Imteaz [13], Rahman et al [14] in Australia imply the importance and significance of the rainwater harvesting study in each area.…”
