Operating-Spectrum Optimization of Water-Intake Pump Retrofits Under Hydrological Variability: Integrating Hydraulic Performance, Energy Use, and Carbon Cost

A pump selected at one duty point may perform poorly over a full year because river level, pipe resistance, demand, and the number of running units all change the operating point. This paper compares discrete retrofit options for a water-intake pumping station using a documented steady-state hydraulic model, pump perfo...
