A
hybrid simulation-optimization approach is developed in this study for
optimally designing the booster chlorination systems in water distribution
networks. In the developed approach, chlorine residuals in the demand locations
are determined by using the response matrix (RM) approach. The generated RM is
then integrated to an optimization model where a hybrid HS–Solver optimization approach
is used.

HS-Solver is a recently proposed hybrid approach which integrates the harmony
search (HS) algorithm and a spreadsheet Solver as the global and local
optimizers, respectively. The objective of the HS-Solver in the developed
approach is for optimally designing the booster stations by maintaining the
chlorine residuals within desired limits. The applicability of the developed
approach is tested on a real water distribution network. Identified results
indicate that the developed

HS-Solver based solution approach determined similar or better results than
those obtained by using the different solution approaches in literature.

Hibrit HS-Solver optimizasyon yaklaşımı kullanılarak ek klorlama istasyonlarının optimum tasarımı

Öz

Bu çalışmada, su dağıtım
şebekelerindeki ek klorlama istasyonlarının optimum tasarımı amacıyla bir
hibrit simülasyon-optimizasyon yaklaşımı geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen
yaklaşımda, talep noktalarındaki bakiye klor konsantrasyonları tepki matrisi
yaklaşımı ile belirlenmiştir. Oluşturulan tepki matrisi ardından hibrit
HS-Solver optimizasyon yaklaşımının kullanıldığı bir optimizasyon modeline
entegre edilmiştir. HS-Solver, armoni araştırması ile elektronik tablolama
programlarında kullanılan Solver eklentisinin sırasıyla global ve lokal
optimizasyon aracı olarak kullanıldığı yeni önerilmiş bir optimizasyon yaklaşımıdır.
Geliştirilen yaklaşımda HS-Solver’ın amacı bakiye klor konsantrasyonlarını arzu
edilen limitlerde tutacak şekilde ek klorlama istasyon sisteminin optimum
tasarımını yapmaktır. Geliştirilen yaklaşımın uygulanabilirliği gerçek bir su
dağıtım şebekesi üzerinde test edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, geliştirilen
HS-Solver tabanlı çözüm yaklaşımı ile literatürde verilenlerle uyumlu veya daha
iyi sonuçlar elde edilebildiğini göstermiştir.
