Abstract
A method for determining a Pump Station Capacity Measure (PSCM) value in relation to a theoretical or actual Precipitation Event in the area of the pump station comprising a tank for temporary storage of a liquid, an inlet for influent liquid, an outlet, and at least one pump configured for transporting the liquid away from the tank via the outlet. The method comprises steps. Determining a Precipitation Inflow character (IN-RAIN) of the pump station representative of the inflow of the influent liquid to the pump station originating from the Precipitation Events in the area of the pump station. Determining a Dry Inflow character (IN-DRY) of the pump station representative of the inflow of the influent liquid to the pump station not originating from the Precipitation Events. Determining a Pump Station Max Capacity (PSMC) that is representative for the maximum output capacity of the pump station.
