Water hammer mitigation via PDE-constrained optimization

Water hammer mitigation via PDE-constrained optimization

This paper considers an optimal boundary control problem for fluid pipelines with terminal valve control. The goal is to minimize pressure fluctuation during valve closure, thus mitigating water hammer effects. We model the fluid flow by two coupled hyperbolic PDEs with given initial conditions and...
