ABSTRACT

To evaluate the performance of Real Time Control (RTC) of urban drainage systems (UDS) a comparison is made with the pre-RTC situation, making the RTC performance dependent on the functioning of the UDS prior to implementation. To standardise things, a generalised baseline is formulated here as the operation with optimal static settings of the UDS. Two maximum theoretical potential performances are then calculated, one including and one excluding system limitations. These are combined with the generalised baseline to form Realised Potential Indicators (RPIs), objective values which indicate the proximity of the RTC strategy to its maximum potential. The proposed methodology was demonstrated on the case study of Eindhoven, the Netherlands. The results obtained show that using RPIs allows for a more objective assessment and improved understanding of the efficacy of different RTC procedures. Additionally, the RPIs can provide an indication if RTC is sufficient to achieve the desired UDS performance.

摘要

为了评估城市排水系统 (UDS) 实时控制 (RTC) 的性能，我们与 RTC 之前的情况进行了比较，使 RTC 性能取决于 UDS 在实施之前的功能。为了标准化，这里将通用基线制定为具有最佳静态设置的 UDS 操作。然后计算两个最大的理论潜在性能，一个包括系统限制，一个不包括系统限制。这些与广义基线相结合，形成已实现潜力指标 (RPI)，这些客观值表明 RTC 策略与其最大潜力的接近程度。所提议的方法在荷兰埃因霍温的案例研究中得到了证明。获得的结果表明，使用 RPI 可以更客观地评估和更好地了解不同 RTC 程序的功效。此外，RPI 可以指示 RTC 是否足以实现所需的 UDS 性能。
