Abstract

In this report, MPC strategies have been designed and tested for the global centralized control of a drinking water network. Test have been implemented by using a software tool called PLIO, which allows the user to select the simulation parameters as well as the demands episodes in order to obtain the desired results. Additionally, this report describes the implementation of a MATLAB-based simulator of a plant model related to the Barcelona drinking water network. Several simulations and test have been done and conclusions from the obtained results are outlined and discussed.
