Poster
Development of an Optimal Pump Operation Strategy for Multifunctional Deep Tunnel Systems Department of Civil Engineering, College of Engineering, Kyung Hee University, Yonginsi, South Korea Deep tunnels play a critical role in urban flood management by temporarily storing excess stormwater to reduce flood risks. Recently, multifunctional deep tunnels that integrate flood control and water reuse have gained attention, but design and operational standards, including those for storage capacity and pump discharge control, remain underdeveloped, highlighting the need for clear criteria. This study proposes an integrated methodology for pump design and optimal operation planning tailored for multifunctional deep tunnel systems. The design framework determines the optimal pump capacities and numbers based on target drainage volume and time constraints, while evaluating various configurations that balance efficiency, maintenance, and energy load. A genetic algorithm is then employed to derive optimal operational strategies that ensure stable performance under variable inflow conditions. The proposed methodology is expected to improve hydraulic performance, enhance operational resilience, and support sustainable urban water management, providing practical guidance for the future design and operation of multifunctional deep tunnel systems. | |
