Reduction of apparent water losses
International Conference “Environmental Engineering”, 2017The water loss levels are very different between European countries as water loss varies from 7% to 50%. According to data from the Lithuanian Water Supply Association, in 2015 about 124 mln. m³ of ground water was supplied to the network, but only 94 mln. m³ of it was sold, while the remaining share represented water losses – 30 mln. m³ per year.

Control Apparent Losses to Optimize Revenue Capture
Opflow, 2021Water audit results are only as useful as the information that drives them. Utilities can ensure accurate water supply data, including apparent loss, by accounting for and addressing metering inaccuracies.

Opflow, 2008
This article discusses a project to install a fixed‐network, automated meter reading system using performance contracting at the city of Anderson, Indiana, in order to fund infrastructure improvements, reduce operations and maintenance costs, and reduce water loss. The article discusses the importance of correct meter sizing and typing and, of 41 large

Practical Steps to Reduce Apparent Water Losses
Opflow, 2005This article discusses water loss and categorizes it into either real losses or apparent losses. A case study is presented of the Kansas City (MO) Water Services Department (KCWSD) where, in 2001, high rates of water loss and accompanying loss of revenue were experienced.

Pricing of Differentiated Services: Apparent Loss and Welfare
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015The results in this paper address the question of how to evaluate and implement optimal price-lead time menus for congested service providers when market knowledge is limited. We formulate the economic assignment problem for the allocation of lead-times to customers with two-dimensional types, heterogeneous in both value for service and sensitivity to ...

Real and apparent loss suppression in MgB2 superconducting composites
Physica C: Superconductivity, 2002Abstract Vibrating sample magnetization (VSM) measurements have been made on round Fe-clad monocore MgB 2 wire fabricated by a powder-in-Fe-tube technique. Magnetization, AC loss, and transport measurements are reported. The M – H and loss measurements were made with a field sweep amplitude of 17 kOe over a temperature range of 4–40 K.

The study of apparent negative value in measuring dielectric loss
IEEE Transactions on Electrical Insulation, 1982The measurement of the dielectric loss of insulating material or electrical apparatus with the Schering bridge at power frequency is one of the most fundamental dielectric tests for evaluating insulation behavior. It has been pointed out that a negative error or even an apparent negative reading of tan?

Contribution of bending energy losses to the apparent tear energy
International Journal of Fracture, 1985When a strip is torn, energy is expended both in tearing it and in propagating a bend along each torn section. Estimates are given of the contribution of bending energy losses to the apparent tear energy. Experiments with highly-dissipative semi-crystalline polymers, torn with controlled amounts of bending, are then described. The bending energy losses

Apparent Loss of Angular Momentum in the Earth–Moon System
Nature, 1973PANNELLA1,2 and others3,4 have presented palaeontological counts of the number of days per solar year (N) and per synodic month (n) during geologic time. This method is based on the cyclic growth increments of various fossils and has been confirmed in their modern counterparts1,5.
