Abstract
The determination of the capacity, location and configuration of a pumping station has to be based on a detailed analysis of the proposed system. Factors like forecasted demand, available supply, function of the pumping station in the water supply system etc., have to be thoroughly considered. Due to these requirements pumping stations in water supply systems (WSS) almost exclusively have more than one pump, and lots of other devices and equipment required for correct operation. In this analysis, however, only the schematic representation of pumping stations will be used (for example, Figure 1.) and equipment relevant for mathematical modelling of transient flow will be indicated.
