Abstract
This paper describes an infrastructure to detect burst events in a water distribution network, which we illustrate using the Guangzhou water distribution system (WDS). We consider three issues: The feasibility and capability of accurate detection, the layout and design of the monitoring infrastructure, and the burst event detection algorithm. Background noise is identified by analyzing the monitored data. A burst event can be accurately detected only when the impact of the burst can be differentiated from the background noise. We hypothesize that there is a minimum pipe diameter below which accurate burst detection is impossible. We found that data from at least two sensors close to the burst event are required to reduce detection errors.
