Water withdrawal strategy: flushing
The ‘Flushing Technology’ water extraction strategy in the water extraction simulation follows a specific extraction sequence. The extraction sequence of the ‘Flushing Technology’ water extraction strategy specifies the order in which flushing of flushing installations and flushing-related consumers takes place.
- Supply pipe to the fire-fighting water transfer station
- Flushing technology in Coolflow systems
- PWH flow paths
- Prioritisation is based on:
- Flow paths without water meters and flow dividers in the passage
- Flow paths without water meters but with flow dividers
- Flow paths with water meters
- Prioritisation is based on:
- PWC flow paths
- Prioritisation is based on:
- Flow paths without water meters and without flow dividers in the passage
- Flow paths without water meters and with flow dividers
- Flow paths with water meters
- Prioritisation is based on:
- Flow paths to mixed-use consumers
- Prioritisation is based on:
- Flow paths without water meters and without flow dividers in the flow path
- Flow paths without water meters and with flow dividers
- Flow paths with water meters
- Prioritisation is based on:
Note:
Sorting is always based on the withdrawal flow rate. If two withdrawal flow rates are identical, prioritisation is based on the length of the flow path.
Note:
The termination criterion for the ‘flushing’ water extraction strategy is a single water exchange in all sections where water is in motion.
