In this paper, an application of the Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm for the optimum design of a water distribution system (WDS) is presented. The SA is a metaheuristic search algorithm, based on the analogy between the physical process of annealing in metals (controlled cooling of a heated mass) and the resolution of combinatorial optimisation problems. The SA algorithm, along with mathematical models, has successfully been used in the optimum design of WDS. The real-scale Marsella WDS, a rural community located in San Carlos, Costa Rica was selected as case study. The SA algorithm was implemented in the well-known open-source model EPANET through the WaterNetGen extension. Three different automated variations of the SA algorithm were c...
