An Analytical Approach for the Optimal Operation of Pumps in Booster Systems

arXiv:1606.05423

Abstract

The operation of pumps and booster systems accounts for 10% of the yearly energy consumption in Europe. Booster systems are used to ensure the water supply in multi-story buildings, office buildings and public institutions. The question arises how to operate a booster system in order to achieve an optimum in power consumption. In the present paper we derive the conditions for optimal operation.
