Abstract
A system for measuring water flows in a sub-network of a water distribution network is provided. The system includes a plurality of sensors, for example pressure sensors, on the network. The system further comprises communication links between the sensor and one a computing device, and a measurement acquisition system. The computing device is configured to retrieve values of measurements, directly or through the measurement acquisition system; use values of measurements to determine values of control variables of a model of the water distribution network which minimize residue values between measurements values and predicted physical values on the network; then use the model parameter with the values of control variables to calculate water flows at the boundaries of the sub-network.
