Abstract

The design and operation of water distribution systems (WDSs) are two interrelated tasks that both impact the overall cost of the systems. The traditional approach is to first design the system and then develop a control strategy for the specified infrastructure. However, this is suboptimal in that the controlled system may hit operating constraints arising from inadequate design, or the capital cost may be excessive due to conservative design processes. The challenge of designing both the infrastructure and control strategy simultaneously is amplified by the demand profiles and energy prices being stochastic. In this paper, we investigate stochastic co-design optimization problems for simultaneously optimizing the tank size and parameters of a pumping strategy. We employ Markov chain theory to establish tractable co-design optimization problems. We show several simulation results to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach.
