Leak Detection in Liquid Pipelines Using Lower Harmonics of Pressure Oscillations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A leak detection technique in liquid pipelines is presented in this paper. The governing equations of continuity and momentum are simplified and solved in the frequency domain using the transfer matrix method (TMM). A ...
Use of Lower Harmonics of Pressure Oscillations for Blockage Detection in Liquid Pipelines
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The transfer matrix method was applied to detect partial blockages in liquid pipelines using the first four harmonics of the pressure oscillations produced by sinusoidal opening and closing of a downstream valve. Unlike ...
Uncertainty Quantification for Damping in Transient Pressure Oscillations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The uncertainty of a model to determine the damping of pressure head oscillations following a sudden valve closure in a simple piping system in a pressurized closed conduit is quantified using Bayesian inference. The joint ...
