This book focuses on the analysis and design of advanced techniques for on-line automatic computational monitoring of pipelines and pipe networks. It discusses how to improve the systems’ security considering mathematical models of the flow, historical flow rate and pressure data, with the main goal of reducing the number of sensors installed along a pipeline. The techniques presented in the book have been implemented in digital systems to enhance the abilities of the pipeline network’s operators in recognizing anomalies. A real leak scenario in a Mexican water pipeline is used to illustrate the benefits of these techniques in locating the position of a leak. Intended for an interdisciplinary audience, the book addresses researchers and professionals in the areas of mechanical, civil and control engineering. It covers topics on fluid mechanics, instrumentation, automatic control, signal processing, computing, construction and diagnostic technologies.

Leaking pipes are a primary concern for water utilities around the globe as they compose a major portion of losses. Contemporary interest surrounding leaks is well documented and there is a proliferation of leak detection techniques. Although the reasons for these leaks are well known, some of the current methods for leak detection and location are either complicated, inaccurate and most of them are time consuming. Transient analyses offer a plausible route towards leak detection due to their robustness and simplicity. These approaches use the change of pressure response of the fluid in a pipeline to identify features. The method used in the current study employ a single pressure transducer to obtain the time domain signal of the pressure transient response caused by a sudden opening and closing of a solenoid valve. The device used is fitted onto a standard UK hydrant and both cause a pressure wave and acquire the pressure history. The work described here shows that the analysis using Hilbert transform (HT), Hilbert Huang transform (HHT) and EMD based method is a promising tool for leak detection and location in pipeline network. In the first part of the work, the analysis of instantaneous characteristics of transient pressure signal has been calculated using HT and HHT for both simulated and experimental data. These instantaneous properties of the signals are shown to be capable of detecting the reflection from the features of the pipe such as leakages and outlet. When tested with leak different locations, the processed results still show the existing of the features in the system. In the second part of the work, the study is based on newly method of analysing non-stationary data called empirical mode decomposition (EMD) for instantaneous frequency calculation for leak detection. First, the pressure signals were filtered in order to remove the noise using EMD. Then the instantaneous frequency was calculated and compared using different methods. With this method, it is possible to identify the leaks and also the features in the pipeline network. These were tested at different locations of a real water distribution system in the Yorkshire Water region.

Ageing infrastructure and declining water resources are major concerns with a growing global population. Controlling water loss has therefore become a priority for water utilities around the world. In order to improve efficiencies, water utilities need to apply good practices in leak detection. Leak Detection: Technology and Implementation assists water utilities with the development and implementation of leak detection programs. Leak detection and repair is one of the components of controlling water loss. In addition, techniques are discussed within this book and relevant case studies are presented. This book provides useful and practical information on leakage issues.

This book introduces novel methods for leak and blockage detection in pipelines. The leak happens as a result of ageing pipelines or extreme pressure forced by operational error or valve rapid variation. Many factors influence blockage formation in pipes like wax deposition that leads to the formation and eventual growth of solid layers and deposition of suspended solid particles in the fluids. In this book, initially, different categories of leak detection are overviewed. Afterwards, the observability and controllability of pipeline systems are analysed. Control variables can be usually presented by pressure and flow rates at the start and end points of the pipe. Different cases are considered based on the selection of control variables to model the system. Several theorems are presented to test the observability and controllability of the system. In this book, the leakage flow in the pipelines is studied numerically to find the relationship between leakage flow and pressure difference. Removing leakage completely is almost impossible; hence, the development of a formal systematic leakage control policy is the most reliable approach to reducing leakage rates.

"The focus of this PhD research is to develop non-invasive and cost-effective techniques for assessing the structural condition of pressurised pipelines using fluid transient pressure waves. The specific objectives include the detection of leaks and localised deterioration that is distributed along a pipeline, such as extended sections of corrosion or the spalling of cement lining. The latter is described by pipeline condition assessment in this thesis. The transient behaviour of a leak is studied in the frequency domain. Numerical studies conducted in this research demonstrate that two leak-induced patterns (on the resonant and the anti-resonant responses) can exist in a frequency response diagram (FRD). The amplitudes of the responses are related to the impedance of the valve in a reservoir-pipeline-valve (RPV) system. A new leak detection technique has been developed in this research based on the further understanding of the leak-induced patterns. This technique uses the relative sizes of the first three resonant responses to determine the location and size of a single leak in RPV systems. In reservoir-pipeline-dead end systems, the information required for single event leak detection is further reduced to the first two resonant responses. A new measurement strategy for the extraction of the FRD of single pipelines is proposed in this research. The boundary valve loss is used to adjust the amplitude of the leak-induced pattern on the resonant responses and also the sharpness of the resonant peaks. A specific type of pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) termed the inverse repeat sequence (IRS), is used as the excitation signal. The antisymmetric property of IRS enables part of the nonlinear responses of the system under excitation to be cancelled out, yielding a measured FRD close to the theoretical linear system response. A side-discharge valve based transient generator is designed and fabricated in this research to implement the new FRD measurement strategy. Laboratory experiments are conducted on an intact pipeline and a pipeline with a leak. This research also conducts analysis of the characteristics of distributed pipe wall deterioration and develops new detection techniques. In a measured pressure trace, the size of the reflection resulting from a section of pipeline with a change in wall thickness is indicative of the characteristic impedance of this section. Once the impedance of this section is determined, the wave speed and wall thickness can be estimated. A technique for the detection of a single deteriorated section in pipelines is developed based on the above analysis. Two other condition assessment techniques are developed to deal with the complexities induced by multiple deteriorated sections. The first technique is termed reconstructive MOC (method of characteristics) analysis, which uses the pressure trace measured at the upstream face of the valve in a RPV system to determine the distribution of the impedance along the pipeline. The algorithm reconstructs a MOC grid by calculating the MOC compatibility equations backwards in time, estimating the properties of the pipeline (impedance, wave speed) and the length of each pipe reach as discretised by the MOC grid from the valve towards the reservoir. Preliminary experimental verification is conducted to verify the applicability of the new technique. The second technique is reconstructive transient analysis (RTA), which can be conducted at any interior accessible points along a pipeline, and does not require a RPV boundary condition. The RTA uses two pressure transducers in close proximity to measure two transient pressure traces in one test. A signal processing algorithm is developed to extract the directional transient waves (traveling upstream and downstream). The use of the directional transient waves enables the step response function (SRF) of the section of pipe upstream or downstream of the paired pressure transducers to be obtained. The reconstructive MOC analysis is then adapted to interpret the SRF to yield the distribution of the impedance, from which the location and severity of distributed deterioration can be identified." -- abstract, pages v-vi.
