Abstract
To pursue a comfortable usage of water in life, a water distribution network (WDN) should have at least 2 bar pressure. However, it is hard to comply with the minimum bar in cities due to the unstable earth and the height of buildings. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to use hydrophore systems for the compliance of the former. In classic hydrophore systems, water is being saved in a water tank whereby a pump and a hydrophore are regulating the pressure in the WDN. Consequently, pressure in a WDN is being downgraded to zero whereby a pump is re-regulating the pressure; however, this leads to energy loss in the WDN. Within the scope of this research, the hydrophore system has been redesigned by adding a pressure-collecting drain without downgrading the energy pressure to zero while transferring the water. Therefore, the usage of energy has been compared by designing two hydrophore systems by using the MATLAB Simulink programme. During the comparison the front pressure has been filled with water whereby the energy usage has been measured. From the results it has been revealed that the new hydrophore system is 45% more productive in comparison to the former system. In addition, analyses have been made whether the programme in question is reliable. Therefore, the cycle, tank level, hydrophore level and suction pressure of the pump have been compared within the scope of the two systems. The graphical results have shown that the model is working well.
