【 摘 要 】
The goal of this article is to study the impact that pressure management in distribution systems has, on the quality of the supplied water in terms of its water age, using the water distribution network of Kos city, capital of Kos Island in Greece was used as the case study network. This was achieved through network simulation using the Watercad V8i software, followed by the division of the network in district metered areas (DMA) and the placement of pressure reducing valves (PRV) in the entering nodes of each DMA. Research aimed also to optimize DMAsâ borders using the water age as the optimization criterion, instead of maximum pressure reduction. Different scenarios were tested on the calibrated and validated hydraulic model of Kos city water distribution network.
