Case Study of the Water Supply System at Nellis Air Force Base Using Computer Simulation.

摘要

The water supply system of a military installation is a n integral part of the utility infrastructure and critical to the mission of the base. The system must be prepared to handle domestic, industrial, fire-fighting and chemical decontamination requirements in a reliable manner. The purpose of this study was to examine, through the use of standard techniques and computer modeling, the current and future supplies and demands of the water utility system at Nellis AFB, Las Vegas, Nevada. The desired macroscopic perspective suggested the use of accurate statistical and simulation techniques. A general approach was taken so that the procedure is applicable to other Air Force water systems as well. Theses. (rrh)
