Part 1)
Three refineries (1,2,3 in the Figure below) send gasoline to two distribution terminals (7,8 in the Figure below).
The pipeline network is served by 3 pumping stations (4,5,6 in the Figure below).
The capacity of each pipe segment is shown on the arcs in the Figure below.
Determine:
(a) Production in each refinery that matches maximum capacity of the network
(b) The daily demand in each terminal that matches the maximum capacity of the network.
(c) The daily capacity of each pump that matches the maximum capacity of the network.
Part 2)
Suppose the maximum daily capacity of pump 6 in the network is limited to 50. Reformulate the problem and determine the maximum capacity of the network.
