    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Neptune_(water...

    Project Neptune's academic and industrial partners aim to address the tasks of developing: energy saving options, online simulation model to provide an overlook of a full day's water distribution patterns, system to mitigate and manage leakage, automate system adjustments, power harvesting methods, and optimized system for reacting to incidents.

  3. Leaky bucket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaky_bucket

    The leaky bucket as a meter is exactly equivalent to (a mirror image of) the token bucket algorithm, i.e. the process of adding water to the leaky bucket exactly mirrors that of removing tokens from the token bucket when a conforming packet arrives, the process of leaking of water from the leaky bucket exactly mirrors that of regularly adding ...

  4. Water metering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_metering

    Water meter in Belo Horizonte. Displacement meters are commonly referred to as Positive Displacement, or "PD" meters. Two common types are oscillating piston meters and nutating disk meters. Either method relies on the water to physically displace the moving measuring element in direct proportion to the amount of water that passes through the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_detector

    Electronic components used to make a simple water detector: battery, resistor, transistor, water sensor and piezoelectric buzzer for audible alert A water detector is an electronic device that is designed to detect the presence of water for purposes such as to provide an alert in time to allow the prevention of water leakage.

  7. Leak detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak_detection

    A leak appearing within an analytic region (a rule added to the camera) is immediately analyzed for its attributes, including thermal temperature, size, and behaviour (e.g. spraying, pooling, spilling). When a leak is determined to be valid based on set parameters, an alarm notification with leak video is generated and sent to a monitoring station.

  8. Automatic meter reading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_meter_reading

    Automatic meter reading (AMR) is the technology of automatically collecting consumption, diagnostic, and status data from water meter or energy metering devices (gas, electric) and transferring that data to a central database for billing, troubleshooting, and analyzing. This technology mainly saves utility providers the expense of periodic ...

  9. Nautical chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nautical_chart

    On nautical charts, the top of the chart is always true north, rather than magnetic north, towards which a compass points. Most charts include a compass rose depicting the variation between magnetic and true north. However, the use of the Mercator projection has drawbacks. This projection shows the lines of longitude as parallel.
