This paper describes the implementation of a real-time hydraulic model of a water distribution system in Singapore. This on-line system is based on the Integration of real-time hydraulic data with hydraulic computer simulation models and statistical prediction tools. To facilitate this implementation, a network of wireless sensor nodes continuously sample hydraulic data such as pressure and flo...

complex culverts have a change of section (transition) at one or more positions along their lengths. the hydraulic performance cannot be estimated using simple culvert methods because the transition may change the control point. by modeling the flow through a transition as free flow, sluice flow, pipe flow and treating a complex culvert, as a series of simple culverts with the appropriate hydra...

Power head is the main motive mechanism of rotary drilling rig. High axial pressure and high frequency is one of its typical working conditions. Axial loading test is a key point in power head performance tests. Overall design, system theoretical analysis and simulation of power head axial loading system were carried out. The bond graph model and state equations of power head axial servo loadin...

Slug test data obtained from tests performed in an unconfined aquifer are commonly analyzed by graphical or numerical approaches to determine the aquifer parameters. This paper derives three fourth-degree polynomials to represent the relationship between Bouwer and Rice's coefficients and the ratio of the screen length to the radius of the gravel envelope. A numerical approach using the nonline...

In this paper an analysis of the hydraulic hybrid system with parallel architecture is carried out. Based on the different delivery van driving regimes a calculation of the van hydraulic hybrid system is conducted and standard hydraulic components are chosen. After that a numerical model of the parallel hydraulic hybrid system is developed using the Matlab/Simulink software. Using a developed n...

Hydraulic fracturing and matrix stimulation are two major methods of the reservoir stimulation. Hydraulic fracturing, which is the newest technique and technically more complex, is very useful in low permeability reservoirs. Although it has been used widely in hydrocarbon production wells, it is a new method in Iran. In this paper, the effect of sufficient barrier layers on hydraulic fracturing...

1 Abstract The paper presents a hydraulic astable multivibrator system. The system consists of hydraulic resistors, hydraulic capacitors and hydraulic pressure controlled valves. The system is designed, realised and tested. The measured system behaviour agrees well with the model simulations. The free running frequency of the multivibrator is 0.18 Hz and the output pressure swing is 90% of the ...

Removal efficiency of COD, NH4-N and PO4-P and NO3-N in five step SBR processes is widely influenced by hydraulic retention time of Anaerobic/Anoxic/Aerobic/Anoxic/Aerobic step of this system where the hydraulic retention time in each step is influence directly on removal efficiency of this system therefore the operator of this system cannot control on this system without experience or a contro...
