Localización de fugas de agua en la red pública mediante equipos acústicos. Zona: Centro Sur de Loja

Abstract

Abstract: Currently, water leaks in sewage systems are one of the main problems for the companies in charge of its distribution, since these present high rates of unaccounted for water, this ends up generating both inefficient systems and expensive. These losses reduce the efficiency of the networks, and can cause degradation in the quality of the water, producing diseases in the community, which is why it is It is extremely important to locate the leaks in order to subsequently repair them and thus avoid possible accidents and consequences. The results after the completion of the project, as established by the objectives both general and specific are the respective capacity of the pumping stations, the sectorization and the location of leaks within the previously designated sector. The location of leaks at the end of the project provides an opportunity for their repair to avoid more losses and that the rate of unaccounted for water is reduced, in addition to the fact that with this document the location of leaks through the use of acoustic equipment can be very easier.
