Non-concurrent multi-leak diagnosis based on an accommodation scheme

This paper focuses on the design and testing of a multi-leak diagnosis scheme, outlined in (J. Garcia et al., Nov. 2008) as a feasible scheme to be implemented in real time. As a main contribution it is shown the performance of the designed scheme with one leak and a couple of non-concurrent leaks with acquired real data from a pilot pipeline. The obtained results are the basis for a future real time implementation in a pipeline prototype.
