Abstract :
In this paper the use of the Muskingum model as an sewer model for automatic feedback (digital and continuous) control is discussed, taking into account several characteristics (the structure, the effects of the ZOH in the closed-loop and the sampling time). This analysis is carried out by comparison with a virtual reservoir model that is widely used for sewer network control. The results are presented and visualised using a test-bench sewer with a typical geometry.
