Intelligent Pressure Management by Networked Sensors and Internet of Things (IoT)

The present work is an example of the results of pressure control operations and its direct effect on urban water losses in the physical part of issues related to consumption management. In this work, there is a significant amount of water loss in the water distribution networks due to the water losses, which varies according to the pressure changes along the day and night. During that, planning was done to improve the operation status and reduce the amount of water losses in the network through advanced pressure management and control in the region. Before the start of the work, the results obtained from the success of the network pressure by Internet of Things (IoT) were investigated through modeling and the usefulness of the work for the region was fully determined. The results showed the average water saving in ۶ days after the completion of the work was reported as ۵۲۷.۶۶ (m۳) per day noticeably more than half of ۴۱.۸۳% of the water was stored during the time of extra pressure, especially from ۴:۰۰ o’clock in the midnight to ۶:۰۰ o’clock in the morning.
