Quick and accurate Cellular Automata sewer simulator

摘要: As urbanisation and climate change progress, the frequency of flooding will increase. Each flood event causes damage to infrastructure environment. It is thus important minimise caused, which can be done through planning for events, real-time control networks risk management. To perform these actions, many different simulations network behaviour are required involving complex computationally expensive model runs. This makes fast (i.e. or repetitive) very difficult carry out using traditional methods, there a requirement develop efficient accurate conceptual sewer simulators. A new Cellular Automata (CA) based presented both accurate. The CA Lagrangian in nature that it represents flow as blocks, movement blocks system simulated. determine number should moved uses either Manning9s Hazen–Williams equation depending on conditions calculate permitted discharge. case study Keighley, Yorkshire, carried showing its performance comparison benchmarks used verify results SIPSON SWMM5.
