Abstract
In the current century environment and energy are the two most vital issues in human’s life. In this work, an optimization in consumed energy of a Water Conveyance System (WCS) is considered. There is a case study of a WCS in Iran named Tikan-Tappe Water Conveyance System. The mentioned WCS has been reformed by some changes in order to achieve the best operational situation. The goal of this research was stated on finding a way to reduce the electricity consumption and electricity cost of the system. The layout of system has been altered and simultaneously the electricity generation has been considered. As a result the water energy in the system has been created. In fact an energy conversion occurred and the kinematic energy of water converted to electricity by employing a turbine. In addition to these changes, the operational time of the system has been revised based on the electricity tariffs of the region. Total electricity cost of the Tikan-Tappe WCS has been reduced by around 23%. Furthermore, because of using a clean energy source, the presented solution is an effective environmentally-friendly solution.
