The paper attempts to apply computer modeling to improve water flows and pressure regulation in the water supply system of the Czarna Białostocka municipality. A dynamic model of the water supply network is therefore a highly efficient tool supporting the observation and regulation of water pressures and flows, allowing for informed decisions regarding the operation, modernization, and expansion of the entire water supply system of a city or municipality.Changes occurring in the Polish economy after 1989 significantly influenced the decrease in water demand, especially in small towns and municipalities where local industry collapsed. In these regions, the population has declined. Other factors causing lower water consumption than planned during the design of water supply systems were the increase in water prices and the installation of water meters for every individual consumer (forcing control and water saving) [1, 2].
The analyzed water supply system was designed using fire safety standards that forced significant oversizing of pipe diameters. (…)
