The pipeline systems used to carry liquids and gases for the ventilation of buildings, water distributions networks, and the oil and chemical industries are usually monitored by a multiplicity of pressure, flow, and valve position sensors. By comparing the input signal to a valve with the pressure reading from the network using cross-correlation analysis, the technique described in this paper enables a single sensor to be used for monitoring. Specifically, the offset and gradient change of the cross-correlation function show the time delay between the input wave and the acquired output signal. These reflections arise from junctions, valves, and terminations, which can be located effectively using the cross-correlation technique. Investigations using a T-shaped pipe network have been conducted with a valve inserted in the pipeline to introduce artificial water hammer-type perturbations into the system. Both computational and experimental data are presented and the results are compared with the actual pipe network geometry. It is shown that it is possible to identify the location of various features of the network from the reflections and thus to perform either system characterisation or condition monitoring.
