Modeling of water quality in distribution systems becomes nowadays a very popular tool applied in the processes of systems design and operation. Usually, according to everyday practice and literature reports, the chlorine propagation is one of the mostly reported subjects of modeling. Meanwhile, literature presents many examples of pollutants originated in polymer pipes’ material seriously deteriorating the quality of water in distribution systems. In this case, the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) may be applied to numerical calculations of simultaneous transport of several organic and non-organic pollutants in drinking water supply systems constructed of metal or polymer pipes. This paper contains the presentation of recognized pollutants migrating to drinking water from plastic pipes, possibilities of CFD application to water quality modeling and basic set of necessary input data as well as range of simulation results. Advantages and disadvantages of CFD as a tool of water quality numerical assessment were also presented.

Modelowanie parametrów jakości wody w systemach dystrybucji jest obecnie stosowane zarówno w procesie projektowania, jak i w eksploatacji sieci wodociągowych. Najczęściej stosowanym w modelowaniu wskaźnikiem jakości wody w sieci jest rozkład chloru. Badania literaturowe wskazują, iż istnieje duża grupa zanieczyszczeń pogarszających jakość wody, a pochodzących z materiału przewodów. W celu numerycznego określenia transportu tych zanieczyszczeń w sieciach wodociągowych wykonanych z różnych materiałów może być zastosowana obliczeniowa dynamika płynów (CFD). W artykule przedstawiono najczęściej identyfikowane w wodzie zanieczyszczenia pochodzące z materiału przewodów wykonanych z tworzyw sztucznych, możliwości zastosowania CFD do modelowania jakości wody oraz niezbędne w tym celu dane wejściowe. Przedstawiono także wady i zalety CFD jako narzędzia do modelowania zmian jakości wody w sieciach.
