Abstract
|
Networks of closed conduits containing pressurized fluid flow occur in many different instances throughout the natural and man made world. The dynamics of such networks are dependent not only on the complex interactions between the fluid body and the conduit material within each fluid line, but also on the coupling between different lines as they influence each other through their common junctions. The forward modeling (time-domain simulation), and inverse modeling (system parameter identification) of such systems is of great interest to many different research fields.
An alternative approach to time-domain descriptions of fluid line networks is the Laplace-domain representation of these systems.
