Optimization of water distribution of network systems using the Harris Hawks optimization algorithm (Case study: Homashahr city)

摘要

In this article applies the Harris Hawks Optimization Algorithm for optimization of the water distribution network of the Homashahr located in Iran for a period of one month (from 30 September 2018 to 30 October 2019). The utilized time-series data included water demand, reservoir storage. In this article, a model based on the Harris Hawks Optimization Algorithm (HHO) was developed for the optimization of the water distribution network. The analysis showed that the best solutions achieved by the Harris Hawks Optimization Algorithm (HHO) were 35,508 $. The results revealed that the HHO algorithm was well in the optimal design of water supply networks problem. At the end, about 12% of the optimization was done by this algorithm.
