Calculation of Leakage in Water Supply Network Based on Blind Source Separation Theory

The economic and environmental losses due to serious leakage in the urban water supply network have increased the effort to control the water leakage. However, current methods for leakage estimation are inaccurate leading to the development of ineffective leakage controls. Therefore, this study prop...

description The economic and environmental losses due to serious leakage in the urban water supply network have increased the effort to control the water leakage. However, current methods for leakage estimation are inaccurate leading to the development of ineffective leakage controls. Therefore, this study proposes a method based on the blind source separation theory (BSS) to calculate the leakage of water supply network. The method uses fast independent component analysis (FastICA) algorithm to separate flow signal of laboratory and practical measuring area, adopts trend similarity to solve the uncertainty of separation sequence to get hourly change curve of user usage and physical leakage, and embeds the leakage model into amplitude optimization model to solve amplitude uncertainty to obtain physical leakage value. The study found that the estimation of leakage level using the blind source separation is reasonably accurate and facilitates the identification of the subsequent reduction in water leakage. This can provide scientific evidence for leakage reduction and the investment of pressure relief devices in the next stage.
