The benefits of remote real-time pressure control in water distribution systems

Author: Page, Philip R Date: Nov 2018 The additional benefit of a recent highly optimal technique which keeps the pressure low and constant at a remote location, above the conventional technique, is discussed. The former technique is called remote real-time control (RRTC). The ... Read more
Parameter-less remote real-time control for the adjustment of pressure in water distribution systems

Author: Page, Philip R ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Yoyo, Sonwabiso Date: Sep 2017 Reducing pressure in a water distribution system leads to a decrease in water leakage, decreased cracks in pipes, and consumption decreases. Pressure management includes an advanced type called remote real-time control. Here pressure control ... Read more
Pressure management of water distribution systems via the remote real-time control of variable speed pumps

Author: Page, Philip R ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Mothetha, Matome L Date: Aug 2017 Low and constant pressure can be maintained throughout a water distribution system by setting the pressure at remote consumer locations and using the pressure to control the speed of a variable speed pump (VSP). The prospect of incorporating ... Read more
Pressure management strategies for water loss reduction in large-scale water piping networks: a review

Author: Adedeji, K ; Hamam, Y ; Abe, B ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI Date: Jun 2017 Water is a precious natural resource; human survival and nearly all modes of economic production depends on water. The efficient use of water resources is a subject of major concern for water utilities around the world. Within the last years, ... Read more
Pressure management strategies for water loss reduction in large-scale water piping networks: A review

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Hamam, Y ; Abe, BT ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI Date: Feb 2018 In water distribution networks (WDNs), water loss through leaking pipes is inevitable, as it constitutes a major threat to the operational services of water utilities. While water utilities are keen to providing an adequate supply of water ... Read more
Real-time adjustment of pressure to demand in water distribution systems: Parameter-less P-controller algorithm

Author: Page, Philip R ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Yoyo, S Date: Aug 2016 Remote real-time control is currently the most advanced form of pressure management. Here the parameters describing pressure control valves (or pumps) are changed in real-time in such a way to provide the most optimal pressure in the water ... Read more
Real-time dynamic hydraulic model for potable water loss reduction

Author: Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Hamama, Y ; Page, Philip R ; Djouani, K ; Kurien, A Date: Aug 2016 South Africa is a water scarce country with limited water resources and steadily growing water demand. Unacceptably high water losses and non-revenue water threaten our water resource security as well as the financial viability of municipal ... Read more
Real-time dynamic hydraulic model of water distribution networks

Author: Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Hamam, Y ; Page, Philip R ; Adedeji, KB ; Anele, AO ; Todini, E Date: Mar 2019 The impact of climate change and increasing urbanisation throughout the world has forced water utility managers to increase the efficiency of water resources. Reduction of real (or physical) water losses plays a crucial role in improving the ... Read more
Robustness of parameter-less remote real-time pressure control in water distribution systems

Author: Page, Philip R ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Piller, O ; Mothetha, Matome L ; Osman, Muhammad S Date: Jun 2017 One way of reducing water leakage, pipe bursts and water consumption in a water distribution system (WDS) is to manage the pressure to be as low as possible. This can be done by adjusting a pressure control valve (PCV) in real-time in order ... Read more
