Data underlying the publication: Evaluating the Impact of New Storage Tank on the Performance of Existing Water Distribution Networks Using Sensitivity and Clustering Analyses

This dataset is the support material of the paper <strong><em>Evaluating the Impact of New Storage Tank on the Performance of Existing Water Distribution Networks Using Sensitivity and Clustering Analyses</em></strong>, which a sensitivity analysis is conducted to investigate the effect of inserting a new storage tank on the resilience and water quality of Al-Hashimiya water distribution network in Iraq. The studied tank parameters are tank location, elevation, diameter, initial water volume, and riser diameter. Also, the network is divided into district-metered areas using clustering analysis, and the appropriate storage tank location for each district-metered area is investigated in terms of nodal demand, nodal pressure deficiency, and feeding distance from the water source to the tank location.

本数据集为论文《采用敏感性与聚类分析评估新建储水罐对既有配水管网运行性能的影响》（Evaluating the Impact of New Storage Tank on the Performance of Existing Water Distribution Networks Using Sensitivity and Clustering Analyses）的配套支撑材料。该研究通过敏感性分析（sensitivity analysis），探究了在伊拉克Al-Hashimiya配水管网（water distribution network）中增设储水罐对管网韧性与水质的影响。本次研究的储水罐参数包括罐址、高程、罐体直径、初始储水量以及提升管直径。此外，研究通过聚类分析（clustering analysis）将该配水管网划分为若干分区计量区域（district-metered areas），并以节点需水量、节点压力缺额以及从水源至罐址的输水距离为评价维度，探究了适配各分区计量区域的适宜储水罐布设位置。
