Introduction to Pilot
In September 2020 Thames Water formed a partnership
with Morrison Water Services to create a real-time simulator
for one of their South London DMAs (ZOXLWD21).
In the future, live systems can alarm and send
messages to users warning of an emerging event,
with acoustic loggers set to record around an area
Pressure loggers can be switched to fast logging
Data from pressure and acoustic logger synced
with changes in flow / nightline
VariSim was to utilise acoustic and smart meter data
coupled with existing data sets from (GIS, SCADA),
pressure management and water balance systems.
DMA Information
•
•
•
20% smart metered, major roads
with twin mains
Over 14,000 properties
3 main feeds, PRV controlled
Problem Statement
•
Why does the DMA suffer from
perceived high leakage levels
and re-occurrence?
BUILDING
Water Balance - What are
our customers doing?
VariSim Delta will provide customers with a real
time water balance from existing and extrapolated
meter data. This allows water companies to
view customer demand in real time, allowing
unaccounted for water (UFW) and high usage
customers to be detected and monitored.
