Hydraulic model based leak localization in water distribution systems using on-field sensor data (Ref: 4342-6)

渗漏是世界各地水务公司面临的最严重的问题之一。该项目将涉及使用计算模型来调查复杂的供水系统的最佳泄漏位置。将使用/开发数据分析方法，从从压力和流量传感器收集的大数据中提取信息，以便在泄漏破裂并造成许多不便之前识别它们。预计这项研究将提供更准确的方法来检测和定位目前无法检测到的中到极小的泄漏，供水务公司和决策者在可持续利用自然资源和规划未来有弹性的水基础设施时使用。该案例研究在印度进行，预计将对印度进行为期三个月的访问，以收集数据。

Leakage is one of the most serious problems that water utilities face around the world. This project will involve the use of computational modelling to investigate optimum location of leaks for complex water distribution systems. Data Analytic methods will be used/developed to extract information from big data collected from the pressure and flow sensors to identify leaks before they become burst and cause a lot of inconvenience. The study is expected to provide more accurate methods for detecting and localising medium to very small leaks that are currently undetectable which can be used by water companies and decision makers in sustainable use of natural resources and planning for future resilient water infrastructure. The case study is in India and a potential three month visit to India to collect data is envisaged.
