Then, the process of estimating the location of water leakage is started. In response to reception of the leakage occurrence event data by the event data receiving unit 111, it may be said that the leakage occurrence position estimation device 101 starts the estimation process of the leakage occurrence position. Thereafter, the leakage occurrence position estimation device 101 repeats the leakage occurrence position estimation process periodically, for example, at times 463 to 465.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a prediction example of the measurement value before the occurrence of water leakage by the measurement value prediction unit 112.
- the vertical axis is a measured value of the water distribution flow rate 411 by the flow rate sensor 310.

- the actual value (white circle mark) 501 of the relationship between the water distribution flow rate 411 and the pressure loss is the water leakage occurrence time included in a certain water leakage occurrence event data input by the measurement value prediction unit 112 and the event (leakage leakage) Event other than the occurrence event) Indicates the actual value of the time zone between the occurrence time.
- the actual value (hatched shaded circle) 502 indicates the actual value at the time after the water leakage occurrence time.
- the actual value 501 is the actual value before the occurrence of water leakage
- the actual value 502 is the actual value after the occurrence of water leakage.
- the measured value prediction unit 112 estimates a prediction curve 511 indicating a correlation between the actual values using a plurality of actual values 501 in the time zone before the water leakage occurrence time.
- the measurement value prediction unit 112 also estimates a prediction curve error range 521-522 indicating an error level of the correlation.
- a statistical method such as a least square method or a statistical machine learning method is used.
- the measurement value prediction unit 112 calculates a predicted measurement value in the same water distribution state as the input measurement value.
- the distribution state is a distribution flow rate including at least the boundary head and the amount of leakage. Since the head of a certain point is the sum of the elevation of the distribution pipe at that point and the value obtained by converting the pressure value in this distribution pipe into the elevation, the boundary head corresponds to the inflow pressure 412 here.
- the measured value predicting unit 112 displays the actual value 502 on the prediction curve 511.
- the pressure loss value at the same water distribution flow rate is calculated (the pressure loss corresponding to the water distribution flow rate of the actual value 502 is obtained on the prediction curve 511). Further, a value obtained by subtracting the calculated pressure loss value from the inflow pressure 412 corresponding to the input measurement value is calculated, and this value is set as a predicted measurement value. Further, the measurement value prediction unit 112 similarly calculates the error range of the predicted measurement value using the prediction curve error range.
- the distribution flow rate of the actual value 502 includes an increase in the flow rate due to water leakage.
- shaft and a horizontal axis is an example, and if a water distribution flow rate including the boundary head and the amount of water leaks can be made the same, it can use arbitrary prediction models.
- the measurement value prediction unit 112 generates a prediction curve for each time period between each event occurrence time other than the occurrence of water leakage, so that the water leakage occurrence position estimation device 101 has a plurality of events other than the occurrence of water leakage. Even if water leakage occurs, the location of water leakage can be estimated. For example, if water leakage occurs several hours after opening or closing of a valve due to construction, a more probable location of water leakage can be estimated by generating a prediction curve from actual values after opening or closing of the valve. .
- FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a geographical change in the index value under the condition that the distribution flow rate including the boundary head and the amount of leakage is the same in the distribution state.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a one-dimensional example for convenience.
- the horizontal axis of the graph is the distance from the distribution reservoir 301.
- the left end is the distribution reservoir 301, and the distance from the distribution reservoir 301 is farther to the right.
- the outflows 611 and 612 indicate the distribution of outflows that combined demand and water leakage after the occurrence of water leakage and before the occurrence of water leakage. Since the water distribution flow rate including the water leakage amount is the same, the outflow amount at other points decreases due to the increase in the outflow amount at the water leakage occurrence position 650.
- Water heads 621 and 622 indicate the distribution of water heads after the occurrence of water leakage and before the occurrence of water leakage.
- the measurement value prediction unit 112 calculates the value at the pressure sensor of the water head 622 before the occurrence of water leakage.
- a value (difference) obtained by subtracting the water head 622 before the occurrence of water leakage from the water head 621 after the occurrence of water leakage is the water head difference 631. Since the altitude does not change before and after the occurrence of water leakage, the water head difference 631 is equal to the decrease value of the pressure value due to the occurrence of water leakage.
- the location of water leakage is not a point where the head difference is negative, for example, downstream of the point 664. Further, as the points 661 to 664 are closer to the water leakage occurrence position, the water head difference takes a larger value. The relationship between the distance from the location of the water leakage and the head difference is not affected by the decrease in demand downstream of the water leakage due to the pressure drop caused by water leakage.
- the index value calculation unit 113 calculates, as an estimated value of the water head difference, a decrease value from the predicted pressure value of the pressure measurement value at the pressure sensor after the water leakage occurrence event as an index value for each pressure sensor in the pipe network. .
- the index value calculation unit 113 subtracts the predicted pressure value of the pressure sensor input from the measurement value prediction unit 112 from the measurement value of the pressure sensor read from the measurement value storage unit 121 for each pressure sensor in the pipe network, The difference is output to the position estimation unit 114 as an index value.
- the index value calculation unit 113 receives the error range of the predicted pressure value from the measurement value prediction unit 112 together with the calculation of the index value, and estimates the position where the range obtained by inverting the positive / negative direction of the error range as the error range of the index value Output to the unit 114.
- the index value calculation unit 113 calculates the index value for each of a plurality of times after the water leakage occurrence time recorded in the received water leakage event data. Then, the index values at a plurality of times may be output to the position estimating unit 114 as time series. As an example of a plurality of times, it is possible to select a time at a predetermined interval (predetermined period) after the water leakage occurrence time 462, as in the times 462 to 465 in FIG.
- the position estimation unit 114 is an area where the index value is not downstream of the negative pressure sensor.
- the area near the largest pressure sensor (greater than the index value of other pressure sensors) is estimated as the position of the occurrence of water leakage.
- the position estimation unit 114 uses a fixed upstream / downstream relationship stored in the sensor arrangement storage unit 122 as the upstream / downstream relationship in the pipe network. For example, the area where the sensor arrangement storage unit 122 further divides the DMA 340 and the upstream / downstream relationship between each area and the sensor are stored in the sensor arrangement storage unit 122, and the position estimation unit 114 is the upstream / downstream between the area and the sensor. Using the relationship, it is possible to limit the area that is estimated as the water leakage occurrence position.
- the position estimation unit 114 may estimate the water leakage occurrence position by using a size comparison considering the error range using the error range of the index value input from the index value calculation unit 113. Between the pressure sensor of the index value for the determination of the pressure sensor with the negative index value, that is, the comparison of the index value with 0 (determination of positive / negative of the index value) and the identification of the pressure sensor with the maximum index value In the size comparison, the position estimation unit 114 uses, for example, a size comparison considering the following error range.
- the size comparison between the pressure sensors by the position estimation unit 114 will be described taking the comparison of index values of the two pressure sensors A and B as an example.
- the position estimating unit 114 determines that the index value of the pressure sensor A is greater than the index value of the pressure sensor B when the error upper limit value of the index value of the pressure sensor B is smaller than the error lower limit value of the index value of the pressure sensor A. judge.
- the position estimation unit 114 estimates the area where the areas estimated from the index values at the plurality of times overlap as the water leakage occurrence position. Good.
- the position estimation unit 114 can estimate the leak occurrence position from the index value at each time, but by narrowing down to the area estimated as the leak occurrence position at a plurality of times, the position estimation unit 114 is more accurate based on the transition of the index value over a long period of time. The location of water leakage can be estimated.
- the index value calculation unit 113 and the position estimation unit 114 compare the water head difference on the condition that the water flow rate including the water leakage amount is the same, and thus the influence of the change in the demand amount is affected. Even if it exists, the relationship between a water leak generation position and a sensor position can be specified.
- Fig. 7 shows an example of the screen display of the location of water leakage.
- the position display unit 132 displays the water leakage occurrence position on the screen.
- a position display window 701 displayed on the display or the like by the position display unit 132 includes a DMA selection box 702, a position display panel 703, and an index value display panel 704.
- the position display unit 132 displays the leak occurrence position related to the DMA included in the leak occurrence event data received by the leak occurrence position estimation apparatus 101. However, the position display unit 132 changes the DMA to be displayed on the position display panel 703 when the operator operates the DMA selection box 702.
- the position display unit 132 displays the water leak occurrence position estimated by the position estimation unit 114 on the position display panel 703. In FIG. 7, the water leakage occurrence position is displayed as a shaded portion of the region 761.
- the position display unit 132 displays the index value of each sensor calculated by the index value calculation unit 113 on the index value display panel 704. In FIG. 7, the sensor ID, the index value, and the sensor type are displayed.
- the leakage occurrence position estimation device 101 can estimate the leakage occurrence position and present the estimated leakage occurrence position to the operator even if there is an influence of a state change due to other factors including a change in demand.
- a water leak occurrence position estimation device for estimating the upstream / downstream relationship between adjacent sensors and areas from the pressure sensor measurement value, sensor installation altitude value, and pipe network connection relationship between adjacent sensors will be described. Since most of the configuration and processing of the water leakage occurrence position estimation device are the same as those in the first embodiment, the differences will be mainly described.
- FIG. 8 is a configuration example of one DMA having a plurality of inflow paths in the water distribution pipe network that is a target of water leakage occurrence position estimation. Compared with the DMA of FIG. 3, a reservoir 802, a flow sensor 811 and a pressure sensor 829 are added.
- the flow direction in the pipe network changes depending on the distribution state of the boundary head and the distribution flow rate.
- the tendency for the upstream / downstream relationship between regions to change will intensify.
- the position estimation unit 114 of the present embodiment additionally inputs the sensor installation altitude value and the pipe network connection relationship between the adjacent sensors from the sensor arrangement storage unit 122, and the upstream / downstream relationship between the adjacent sensor and the region, It is estimated from the pressure sensor measurement value, the sensor installation altitude value, and the pipe network connection relationship between adjacent sensors.
- the upstream / downstream relationship between the sensors can be estimated by calculating the head value of the sensor position from the pressure sensor measurement value.
- the position estimation unit 114 adds the sensor installation altitude value to the value obtained by converting the pressure sensor measurement value into the altitude value, and calculates the head value of each sensor. Subsequently, the position estimation unit 114 determines which one of the adjacent sensors connected by the pipe network is upstream or downstream from the comparison of the head values between the sensors. From the upstream / downstream relationship of each sensor and the pipe connection relationship, the upstream / downstream relationship is also estimated for the area near the sensor.

Since most of the configuration and processing of the water leakage occurrence position estimation device are the same as those in the first embodiment, the differences will be mainly described.
- FIG. 9 is a configuration example of one DMA in which an acoustic level sensor is installed in a distribution pipe network that is a target of water leakage occurrence position estimation. Compared with the DMA of FIG. 3, acoustic level sensors 941-944 are added.
- the measurement value prediction unit 112 calculates, for each acoustic level sensor, measurement value data (acoustic level) in the same time zone on a different day from the measurement value data after the occurrence of water leakage among the measurement value data before the occurrence of water leakage.
- the measured value is output to the index value calculation unit 113.
- the index value calculation unit 113 outputs a value obtained by subtracting the input predicted measurement value from the input measurement value for each acoustic level sensor to the position estimation unit 114 as an index value.
- the position estimation unit 114 estimates the area near the acoustic level sensor having the maximum index value as the position of the water leakage occurrence within the range of the water leakage occurrence position estimated from the pressure sensor information. And stored in the position storage unit 123.
