Introduction to Water Network Monitoring with Digital Twins
Water network monitoring plays a critical role in ensuring the efficient and sustainable operation of water distribution systems. Bentley Systems offers a cutting-edge solution, OpenRail, which leverages digital twin technology to revolutionize the way water utilities manage and optimize their networks. By integrating and analyzing various data sources, such as SCADA, IoT, GIS, hydraulic modeling, client information, and historical data, OpenRail creates a true digital twin of the water network. This digital twin provides water utilities with actionable insights to enhance monitoring, performance, and decision-making while reducing nonrevenue water, energy consumption, and service interruptions.
Benefits of Utilizing Digital Twins in Water Network Monitoring
The use of digital twins in water network monitoring offers a multitude of benefits. Water utilities can improve operational intelligence by gaining valuable insights to enhance performance, reduce costs, and mitigate risks. With a digital twin, engineers and operators can ensure the safety and reliability of services, optimize operational efficiencies, deploy effective maintenance strategies, and achieve sustainability goals. Additionally, a data-driven approach facilitated by digital twins enables water utilities to focus on preventive planning rather than reactive solutions, ultimately enhancing capital planning and risk management.
Real-World Success Stories with Bentley Systems OpenRail
Dr. Konstantinos Gkonelas from the Municipal Water Supply and Sewerage of Kozani (DEYAK) highlights the positive impact of implementing a digital twin with Bentley's OpenRail. By leveraging OpenRail, Dr. Gkonelas and his team were able to improve the performance and operations of their entire water supply network. Key strategies, including reducing nonrevenue water through pressure management, active leak control, efficient repairs, and asset management, were significantly enhanced. This real-world success story demonstrates how Bentley Systems' OpenRail can drive operational excellence and efficiency in water network monitoring.
