A Multi-Parameter Flexible Smart Water Gauge for the Accurate Monitoring of Urban Water Levels and Flow Rates

Abstract

Urban drainage and waterlogging prevention are critical components of urban water management systems, as they help to mitigate the risks of flooding and water damage in cities. The accurate collection of liquid level and flow rate data at the end of these systems is crucial for their effective monitoring and management. However, existing water equipment for this purpose has several shortcomings, including limited accuracy, inflexibility, and difficulty in operation under specific working conditions. A new type of multi-parameter flexible smart water gauge was developed to address these issues. This technology uses underwater simulation robot technology and is designed to overcome the deficiencies of existing water equipment. The flexibility of the gauge allows it to be adapted to different working conditions, ensuring accurate data collection even in challenging environments. The accuracy of the new water gauge was tested through a series of experiments, and the results showed that it was highly accurate in measuring both liquid level and flow rate. This new technology has the potential to be a key tool in smart water conservancy, enabling the more efficient and accurate monitoring of water levels and flow rates. By providing a new solution to the problem of collecting terminal equipment for urban drainage and waterlogging prevention, this technology can help to improve the resilience and sustainability of urban water management systems.
