DETERMINATION OF LEAKAGE AND IDENTIFICATION OF BURSTS IN A PIPE NETWORK |
摘要 |
A method of dividing the total leakage losses of a pipe network into intrinsic background leakage and burst leakage, the method comprising: defining a first infrastructure condition factor (ICF) which is a numerical representation of the condition of a network in a threshold good condition in which intrinsic background leakage can assumed to be a negligible proportion of the total network leakage losses; defining a second ICF which is a numerical representation of the condition of a network in a threshold poor condtion in which intrinsic background leakage dominates total leakage losses; deriving a network ICF for the network under consideration which expresses the condition of the network as a numerical fraction of the difference between the first and second ICFs; determining total leakage losses from the network by performing a network analysis on the network; and multiplying the total leakage losses by the network ICF to divide the total leakage losses into intrinsic background and total network burst leakage.
