ABSTRACT
It is important to optimize the design of urban sewage collection pipe networks. In this study,
we established a nonlinear programming mathematical model by considering the undetermined
engineering system for an urban sewage collection pipe network scheme as the research subject.
The model treats the minimum total annual cost of sewage collection pipe networks as the objective
function, the head loss at the head and end of the branch and trunk pipes belonging to the trunk pipe
section as the coupling constraint, the longitudinal slope of the pipe section, pipe economic flow rate,
and optional standard pipe diameter of the division pipe section as the feasible region constraints on the
decision variables, and the line scheme for the pipe networks and diameter of the division pipe section
as decision variables. We developed an optimization method by combining orthogonal test-based line
selection and the decomposition-dynamic programming aggregation method for the large diameter
pipe system, which treats the branch and trunk pipes belonging to the trunk pipe section as the test
factor, and the line scheme for the branch and trunk pipes belonging to the trunk pipe section as the
test level. We considered the regional sewage collection pipe network in Taizhou city as an example to
conduct a comparative analysis and verified that the proposed optimization method can solve this type
of large system optimization problem rapidly and accurately, thereby providing a theoretical reference
for optimizing the design of urban rainwater drainage pipe networks.
