Coupled numerical simulation and sensitivity assessment for quality modeling in water distribution systems
Résolution couplée des équations d'état et des équations de sensibilité associée pour la modélisation de la qualité de l'eau d'un réseau de conduites
Résumé
Quality modelling is a growing topic of research in water resource. Sensitivity analysis is an important topic which can help to investigate the stability of a process perturbed by parameter changes and uncertainty impacts. This work proposes to solve unsteady sensitivity equations for a complex looped pipe network. These equations are derived from and highly dependent on the unsteady advection-reaction equations for quality indicators. So, special attention is to be focused on the coupled version of these ones. In this purpose a Total Variation Diminishing (TVD) scheme based on a splitting and possessing very good quality of stability is set up and validated on a benchmark pipe networks. This scheme shows very good results.
