Abstract

A decision support system for water management based on convex optimization, is applied to a water system containing river branches connected by weirs. This paper describes a convex approximation approach for the model predictive control of weirs implemented using RTC-Tools 2. Model predictive control using RTC-Tools 2 is implemented for a river that contains 12 river reaches divided by controllable weirs and it is tested in closed loop simulation with a non-linear model. By controlling the weir heights, it is shown how the discharge wave is dispatched in the river without the water levels exceeding the bounds.
