Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A fluid transportation network includes plural parallel zones, a common supply line for feeding a total flow of fluid to the parallel zones, each parallel zone being connected to the common supply line and associated with a pump that controls a flow of fluid through the respective parallel zone, one or more zone valves arranged in one of the parallel zones and controlling the flow of fluid through the parallel zone, and a processor that controls one or more of the pumps, and/or the at least one zone valve, to control the flow of fluid through the parallel zones. The pumps control the flow of fluid through one or more of the plural parallel zones only when a respective pump is operating within a specified efficient operating range of the respective pump, and the respective pump regulates flow of fluid above a respective flow threshold value of the respective pump.
