Journal AWWA - Developing System Head Curves for Water Distribution Pumping
Journal Article by American Water Works Association, 07/01/1989
Walski, Thomas M.;Ormsbee, Lindell E.
Full Description
This article discusses cases in which water use near pump stations needs to be taken into consideration and illustrates how to use a pipe network model to determine a system head curve for those conditions. System head curves can be improved by consolidating water users at a single node, or, for more complex distribution systems, by using a water distribution model to determine system heads. Includes 7 references, figures.
