The aim of the<br \/>\nstudy was to investigate changes in the hourly distribution of water consumption caused by a sudden thermal anomaly.<br \/>\nThe study was conducted using 30 days of operational data (August 22-September 20, 2024), comparing daily and<br \/>\nhourly water consumption with the maximum daily temperature. A significant, positive linear correlation (R=0.76) was<br \/>\nfound between maximum air temperature and water consumption for daily values, confirming that warmer days imply<br \/>\nhigher consumption, while sudden cooling leads to a reduction. The highest daily consumption (465.71 m\u00b3\/d) was<br \/>\nrecorded during the heatwave, while after a sudden weather breakdown in mid-September, consumption dropped to<br \/>\nonly 56% of the maximum value. In turn, the analysis of hourly water consumption showed that this relationship is non-<br \/>\nlinear. Therefore, an exponential function was proposed to describe the relationship between hourly consumption and<br \/>\ntemperature, considering linear regression to be inadequate. The results highlight the need to update water<br \/>\nconsumption forecasting models to account for the dynamic impact of rapid meteorological fluctuations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":[],"tags":[5027,5023,5025,5024],"tematyka":[387],"class_list":["post-24211","artykul","type-artykul","status-publish","hentry","tag-correlation","tag-lower-air-temperatures","tag-season","tag-water-distribution-histograms","tematyka-water-supply-and-sewage-system","has-post-title","has-post-date","has-post-category","has-post-tag","has-post-comment","has-post-author",""],"ptb_metabox":{"ptb_artykul_text_1":["WOJCIECH CIE\u017bAK","MA\u0141GORZATA KUTY\u0141OWSKA","MONIKA NOWAKOWSKA"],"ptb_artykul_text_2":"10.36119\/15.2025.12.18","ptb_artykul_numer_miesi_cznika":"12\/2025 Instal pp.103-108","ptb_artykul_info_autor":"dr in\u017c.
