Abstract

The pressure sensors positioning is a crucial step for leakages detection. The optimal positioning of monitoring sensors, or simply sampling design, has been previously addressed with respect to several purposes. The proposed methodology aims to select the pressure monitoring nodes for leakages detection by coupling the water distribution network hydraulic simulation model with the identifiability analysis. The nodes selection is done among those which are more sensitive with respect to different leakages positions and uncorrelated from each other to avoid redundant information. The parameter uncertainty effect on the results is also investigated. The method is applied to the benchmark network Apulian.

Keyphrases: distribution network, optimisation techniques, sensors
