Embodiment Construction

[0018] To aid understanding of the present invention, a glossary of terms is attached at the end of this specification. Throughout the specification and drawings, like elements have been given the same reference numerals to avoid repetition.

[0019] figure 1 A piping system 10 is shown with a floor 12 along which water 14 can flow in the direction of arrow 15 . Distributed along the piping system are a number of water regulators 16 and 18 that control the flow of water along the piping. The water regulators 16 and 18 are preferably shoot-up gates of the type shown in our pending Australian Patent Application Nos. PQ 9554 and PR 1217 (now International Application No. PCT / AU01 / 01036), here The contents of the above-mentioned patent applications are incorporated into this specification. A typical shoot-up gate has the gate hinged at the bottom, as shown at 20 and 22 in the Figures. These gates can be pivoted away from the vertical position to any angular position towards th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method of predicting the fluid level at a predetermined location in a fluid flow network (10) having at least one regulator (16, 18) to control the flow of fluid along fluid flow network (10). The method includes the steps of collecting data based on timed measurements of fluid levels upstream (24, 28) of at least one regulator (16, 18), fluid levels downstream (26, 29) of at least one regulator (16, 18) and the opening position (30, 32) of at least one regulator (16, 18), and using data analysis (40) to provide a model based on the data whereby the model will provide prediction of fluid level at the predetermined location based on timed measurements of fluid levels upstream (24, 28) of at least one regulator (16, 18) and the opening position (30, 32) of at least one regulator (16, 18).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of predicting, calibrating, measuring and / or controlling fluid levels in a fluid network having at least one fluid regulator, in particular, but not limited to, a Methods of predicting, calibrating, measuring and / or controlling water levels in piping systems. Background technique [0002] Because water is a precious resource, one issue is how to deliver it precisely to the end user. This problem is a characteristic of using (irrigation) pipelines, eg meeting the water supply needs of end users within the constraints of the water supply. For this, water is dispatched from storage tanks and piped to end users. Operational constraints typically include flow rates and prescribed water levels required to properly deliver water to consumers. (The water level in question represents the quality of the service measure in a sense.) Other limits on the regulator and the rate at which the water level changes may also ex...
