Burst detection and location in water distribution networks
Författare
Summary, in English
An algorithm for the detection and location of sudden bursts in water
distribution networks combining both continuous monitoring of pressure and hydraulic
transient computation is presented. The approach is designed for medium and large bursts
that are the result of the sudden rupture of the pipe wall or other physical element in the
network and are accompanied by the transient pressure wave that propagates throughout
the network. The burst-induced transient wave arrival times and magnitudes measured at
two or more points are used to find the location of a burst. The wave arrival times and
magnitudes are detected using the modified cumulative sum (CUSUM) change detection
test. Results of validation on a real network show the potential of the proposed burst
detection and location technique to be used in water distribution systems.
