Propuesta de regulación de presiones en una sección de la red de distribución de agua potable (RDAP) del cantón Riobamba. Circuitos abastecidos desde el tanque de planta de tratamiento.

Abstract

In the present titling work, the objective is to optimize the pressure plane of a RDAP to ensure the improvement in the provision of the service from the point of view of service pressures to users, prioritizing the efficient use of potable water for an area. of approximately 813 drinking water accounts and 53 km of network. For this, the treatment of the data obtained in the field must be carried out in order to be used in the estimations of the components of the water balance prior to the renewal of networks, and currently; determination of loss indicators, data analysis, and recommendations. The results show that with the use of pressure reducing valves at the entrances or exits of each sector we can reduce by 50% the pressures that exceed 55 mca, which is the maximum allowed in the proposal and that they worked at least until 10 mca, which was the minimum raised.
