Modeling and Control of Pipeline Networks Supplied by Automated Irrigation Channels

A model-based approach to control system design is developed for regulating the discharge flows at outlets of a pipeline network supplied by an irrigation channel. The open channel also controlled automatically regulate supply-point water level. hydraulic pressure source therefore dynamic when flow load varies. Regulation piped achieved adjusting outlet valves on basis specified demand and sensor measurements. blend feedforward feedback proposed. steady-state behaviour nonlinear distributed-parameter model used determine action. action compensate modeling error. controller based frequency-domain transfer function dynamics, classical loop-shaping ideas. This obtained via admittance matrix linearized equations. synthesis both centralized decentralized configurations considered. Simulations that involve dynamics are illustrate performance.
