AC induced corrosion assessment of buried pipelines near HVTLs: A case study of South Africa

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Ponnle, AA ; Abe, BT ; Jimoh, AA ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Hamam, Y Date: Jun 2018 Metallic pipelines have attendant problems of alternating current (AC) assisted corrosion when installed in the utility corridor with high voltage transmission lines. Research studies in the past and recent years have shown that this corrosion ... Read more
Burst leakage-pressure dependency in water piping networks: Its impact on leak openings

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Hamam, Y ; Abe, BT ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI Date: Sep 2017 In most water distribution systems, an appreciable volume of water is lost through leaking pipes, resulting in financial loss and environmental pollution among others. Thus, water loss constitutes a major challenge to utilities around the ... Read more
Effect of pipe materials on BLE using graph-based integrated hydraulic model

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Hamam, Y ; Abe, BT ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI Date: Jul 2018 The battle of background leakage estimate (BLE) in water supply networks has been the subject of discussion in the last years. This paper aims to investigate the effect of pipe materials with particular reference to their impact on the BLE ... Read more
GUI-Based AC induced corrosion monitoring for buried pipelines near HVTLs

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Ponnle, AA ; Abe, BT ; Jimoh, AA ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Hamam, Y Date: Nov 2018 In this paper, a stand-alone application with graphical user interface (GUI) developed for monitoring AC induced corrosion expectancies of buried pipelines near a high voltage AC transmission line is presented. A Rand water site, South Africa, ... Read more
Leakage detection and estimation algorithm for loss reduction in water piping networks

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Hamam, Y ; Abe, BT ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI Date: Oct 2017 Water loss through leaking pipes constitutes a major challenge to the operational service of water utilities. In recent years, increasing concern about the financial loss and environmental pollution caused by leaking pipes has been driving ... Read more
Pipeline grounding condition: A control of pipe-to-soil potential for AC interference induced corrosion reduction

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Abe, BT ; Hamam, Y ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Shabangu, TH ; Jimoh, AA Date: Feb 2017 The interference effect from high voltage overhead lines on nearby metallic pipelines is a major challenge for utility owners due to the induced AC potentials on metallic pipelines. Nevertheless, numerous mitigation techniques have been ... 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
A review of the effect of AC/DC interference on corrosion and cathodic protection potentials of pipelines

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Ponnle, AA ; Abe, BT ; Jimoh, AA ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI ; Hamam, Y Date: Dec 2018 Pipelines installed in the energy utility corridor with alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC) sources have attendant problem of induced corrosion. In the past years, AC or DC induced corrosion of metallic pipelines has been a major ... Read more
A spreadsheet tool for the analysis of flows in small-scale water piping networks

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Hamam, Y ; Abe, BT ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI Date: Jul 2017 The analysis of water piping system has been presented by several authors in the past and in recent years proposing several solution algorithms. Among the notable methods are the Hardy cross method, linear approximation method, Newton Raphson ... Read more
Towards achieving a reliable leakage detection and localization algorithm for application in water piping networks: an overview

Author: Adedeji, KB ; Hamam, Y ; Abe, BT ; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI Date: Sep 2017 Leakage detection and localization in pipelines has become an important aspect of water management systems. Since monitoring leakage in large-scale water distribution networks (WDNs) is a challenging task, the need to develop a reliable and ... Read more
