Abstract(s)
A flexible framework for modeling different water conveyance networks is presented. The network is modeled
using a linear canal pool model based on the Saint-Venant equations to describe transportation phenomenon
occurring in open channels. This model is used as a link to connect different nodes defined by gates or
reservoirs. The linear pool model has interesting features namely the pool axis monitoring, the inflow along
the pool axis and the ability to consider different boundary conditions. Based on these characteristics canal
pool observers for leak detection and localization can be developed. It is shown that based on a finite difference
scheme a good performance is obtained for low space resolution. The modeling framework is validated with
experimental data from a real canal property of the Evora University. This is a challenging configuration due ´
to its strong canal pool coupling.
