To ensure the plugin functions correctly, users must operate it within an environment with a calibrated model.
Optimize leak detection in expanding networks: As your network grows, ensure new pressure sensors are placed strategically to enhance monitoring capabilities without disrupting existing infrastructure.
Maximize value from existing sensors: Improve network coverage by repositioning existing sensors.
Simulate the optimal sensor investment for your network: Compare scenarios of different sensor investment strategies, e.g. adding 3 or 4 new sensors, or repositioning versus maintaining locations. Evaluate multiple solutions and pick the one that works best for your priorities and resources.
Advanced simulations: Leverage EPANET to model hydraulic behavior under various conditions.
Leakage scenario modeling: Simulate leaks to evaluate network performance.
Sensitivity analysis: Generate matrices to understand pressure variations during simulated leaks.
Multi-objective optimization: Find sensor placements that balance detection and isolation.
Visual insights: Get clear graphical outputs of optimal sensor locations.
Network reduction option: Simplify the network by setting a minimum pipe diameter.
