Dear list members,
To all of you with an interest in real time control of urban drainage
sytems:
* NEW: Free demonstration tool for real time control of urban drainage
systems (unfortunately, this is in German only)
ifak has developed a software tool, which illustrates the fundamental
principles of real time control of urban drainage system. It can be
downloaded for free. Development was initiated by the Real Time Control
working group of the German Association for Water, Wastewater and Waste
(DWA; formerly known as ATV/DVWK) and was carried out by ifak in
cooperation with Dr. Meßmer and iaks, under co-financing of Deutsche
Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU).
This demonstrator allows the user to explore the fundamental principles
of real time control for two simple sewer networks, comprising of the
main configuration options of network structure, storage volumes and
control options. It is the wish of the developers that this demonstrator
– together with the other material developed by DWA (“Planning tool
PASST” and guideline document M180) will assist in raising awareness of
the potential of real time control as a means of cost-efficient,
sustainable and environmentally friendly management of urban wastewater
systems.
The demonstrator can be downloaded for free by clicking on
"KN-Demonstrator" on
http://simba.ifak-md.de
Please, note that software and documentation are in GERMAN ONLY.
Suggestions and comments are welcome.
Many regards from Magdeburg/Germany
Manfred Schuetze
