| Abstract |
A spatial approach that disaggregates the water supply system into the components of acquisition-treatment and transmission-distribution, allows these components to be studied in isolation and in combination. Each of these components has different cost and physical functions and the cost and performance trade-offs between these functions can provide important insights into regionalization and cost-related issues. The Water Supply Simulation Model (WSSM) described in the paper is a system of computer programs that allows for an evaluation of the physical and economic characteristics of a water distribution system in a spatial framework. The development of the model and its application to a case study situation is presented. |
