Abstract
A system and method for controlling operations of a fluid distribution may include a first manifold receiving a next mode of operation for the fluid distribution system. The first manifold may calculate first and second flow requirements for the first and second manifolds that may respectively include a first and second total flowrates from the first and second manifolds. The first manifold may determine required operation states for valves of the first manifold and the second manifold for the next mode based on the first and second flow requirements. The first manifold may be controllably operated to cause the second manifold and a supply device of the fluid distribution system to operate in the required operation states and provide first and second flow requirements. The first manifold may direct the second manifold to independently balance individual outlet flowrates of the second manifold while continuing to provide the second flow requirements.
