DESCRIPTION

The focus of this study was the Proença-a-Nova water supply system, with the particular tasks of evaluating the global water demand for public consumption, evaluating of the installed capacity in the Corgas subsystem, regarding the source, treatment, pumping, transport and storage to the delivery nodes, and the technical and economical evaluation of the proposed interventions for the fulfilment of the demand.

The study was carried through the development of simulation models for operating the water source reservoirs within the system and the collection of elements from the adductor registration system, the settings of the operating equipment, and flow and level records for the summer and winter periods. A computational model of hydraulic simulation was built (based on a commercial natured application software with the adaptation of specific modules) for the current and future situations in order to assess the feasibility of strengthening the water supply to Proenca-a-Nova and the definition and optimization of solutions.

The simulation model was built over commercial application software, with the adaptation of specific modules for the work’s requirements.
