PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY SYSTEMS FUNCTIONING AS HYDRANT NETWORKS
Abstract
Public water supply systems’ function as hydrant networks is only one of the functions which need to be satisfied; however it is still in conflict with the target of water supply. Conflicting regulations on potable water supply and adequate fire flows in water supply systems involve the inclusion of alternative sources to satisfy fire flow requirements. Non-harmonized regulation and the evolving difficulties in hydrant networks require an analysis of available fire flows from water supply systems and complementing quantities from other sources. Hydraulic modeling and reliability analyses of hydrant networks (PIVC model) allow the planning of measures to improve the level of fire protection.
