Transient Modeling of a Full-Scale Distribution System: Comparison with Field Data
Abstract
The usefulness of transient models depends on their predictive ability. Consequently, their results should ideally be validated with field data. Despite numerous theoretical developments in the area of surge analysis, comparisons between field and modeled data for large distribution systems (DSs) are scarce. Transient low-pressure events at a water treatment plant (WTP) resulted in negative pressures at numerous locations in the DS. Three …
