Project Description

As result of the AM0619 project "Optimum Control of Urban Drainage Systems", where CORAL tool was evaluated against real case study (Riera Blanca), some improvements in the modelling part of the tool have been suggested. In particular, the current RTC1201 project adresses the following CORAL improvements:

- in-line retention in sewers
- multi-compartment tanks
- weirs controlled by water level
- run-off modelling improvement
- multi-objective prioritisation

The CORAL improvements have been satisfactory tested and validated using the Riera Blanca catchment of the Barcelona sewer network.
