Storage Tank Optimization Technique and General Concepts

The enumeration technique employed by Wadiso to size pumps and pipes in the system was described in the Optimization section. This technique had been extended to also account for the trade-off between pipe sizes and storage tanks in the system as well. These concepts are discussed in this section under the following topics:

Functions of storage tanks

Reasons for including tank cost in the optimization

Critical Period Tank Sizing Technique

Inclusion of tank sizing technique in the enumeration algorithm.
