ESTIMATION OF DAILY HOUSEHOLD WATER CONSUMPTION USING METERED WATER CONSUMPTION DATA

Abstract

 Considering the changes in household water consumption characeristics such as water saving appliances and water reuse is important for designing long term water resources management plan and reservoir operation during drought period. This paper suggested estimating method of daily household water consumption during water supply restrictions using metered water consumption, which is total of water consumption for several months. Temporal disaggregation technique was applied to the estimation. Because date of metering are different between households, quantitative analysis on water consumption during water supply restrictions using metered water consumption data was difficult. However it is easily conducted by using estimated daily water consumption by this method.
