Leak management in district metered areas with internal-pressure reducing valves

Pressure management is one of the most efficient ways to reduce leaks in water networks. Conventional pressure management techniques in water networks deals with the control of a single boundary Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV). The real-world water network under study in this work has multiple internal PRVs within the DMA, which makes direct application of the existing pressure management techniques difficult. In this study, we have formulated a...
