Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

5. Water is drawn from the sources by Intakes. After it’s drawing the next
problem is to carry it to the treatment plant which is located usually within
city limits. Therefore after collection, the water is conveyed to the city by
mean of conduits. If the source is at higher elevation than the treatment
plant, the water can flow under gravitational force.
For the conveyance of water at such places we can use open
channel,aqueduct or pipe line, Mostly it has been seen that the water level in
the source is at lower elevation than the treatment plant, In such case water
can be conveyed by means of closed pipes under pressure

7. If the source of supply is underground water, usually there is no problem as,
these sources are mostly in the underground of the city itself.
The water is drawn from the underground sources by means of tube-wells
and pumped to the over-head reservoirs, from where it is distributed to the
town under gravitational force.
Hence at such places there is no problem of conveyance of water from
sources to the treatment works.

eliminated the use of channels, aqueducts and tunnels to a large extent.
These are made of various materials like cast Iron, wrought Iron, steel,
cement Concrete, asbestos, cement, timber, etc.
In distribution system pipes of various diameter, having many connections
and branches are used.
Water pipe lines follow the profile of the ground water and the location
which is most economical, causing less pressure in pipes is chosen.
PIPES
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 11
14. The cost of pipe line depends on the internal pressure to bear and the
length of pipe line.
Therefore as far as possible the hydraulic line is kept closer to the pipe line.
In the valley or low points a scour valve is provided to drain the line and
removing accumulated suspended matter.
Similarly at high points air relief valves are provided to remove the
accumulated air.
To prevent the bursting of pipes due to water hammer, surge tanks or stand
pipes are provided at the end of pipes.

PLASTIC PIPES
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 36
37. For the facilities in handling, transporting, and placing in position, pipes are
manufactured in small lengths of 2 to 6 meters.
These small pieces of pipes are then joined together after placing in position
to make one continuous length of pipe.
The design of these joints mainly depends on the material of the pipe,
internal water pressure and the condition of the support
The bell and spigot joints, using lead as filling material is mostly used for
cast Iron pipes.
For Steel pipes welded, riveted, flanged or screwed joints my be used.
PIPE JOINTS
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 37
41. This types of joints is mostly used for cast iron pipes
For the construction of this joint the spigot or normal end of one pipe is
slipped in socket or bell mouth end of the other pipe until contact is made at
the base of the base of the bell.
SPIGOT AND SOCKET JOINTS
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 41
42. Sometimes wet clay is used to make tight contact between the runner and
the pipe so that hot lead may not run out of the joint spaces.
The molten lead is then poured into V-shaped opening left in the top by the
clamp joint runner.
The space between the hemp yarn and the clamp runner is removed, the
lead which shrink while cooling, is again tightened by means of chalking tool
and hammer.
Now a days in order to reduce the cost of lead certain patented compounds
of sulphur and other materials and other materials are filled in these joints.
SPIGOT AND SOCKET JOINTS
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 42
44. This joint is mostly used for temporary pipe lines, because the pipe Line can
be dismantled and again assembled at other places.
The pipe in this case has flanges on its both ends, cast, welded or screwed
with the pipe.
The two ends of the pipes which are to be jointed together are brought in
perfect level near one another and after placing of washer or gasket of
rubber, canvas, copper or lead between the two ends of flanges is very
necessary for securing a perfect water-tight joints.
These joint cannot be used at places where it has to bear vibration of pipes
etc..
FLANGED JOINT
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 44
46. Sometimes this joint is also called Bell & Socket or Universal Joint.
This joint is used at such places where settlement is likely to occur after the
lying of the pipes.
This joint can also be used for laying of pipes on curves, because at the joint
the pipes can be laid at angle.
This is a special type of joint. The socket end is cast in a spherical shape.
The spigot end is plain but has a bead at the other end.
For the assembling of this joints, the spigot end of one pipe is kept in the
spherical end of the other pipe.
FLEXIBLE JOINT
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 46
48. After this the retaining ring is slipped which is stretched over the bead.
Then a rubber gasket is moved which touches the retainer high after it split
cast iron gland ring is placed,
The outer surface of which has the same shape as inner surface of socket
end.
Over this finally cast iron follower ring is moved and is fixed to the socket
end by means of bolts. It is very clear that if one pipe is given any deflection
the ball shaped portion will move inside the socket, and the joint will remain
waterproof in all the position.
FLEXIBLE JOINT
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 48
50. This joint is used at such places where pipes expand or contract due to change in
atmospheric temperature and thus checks the setting of thermal stresses in the
pipes.
In this joints the socket end is flanged with cast iron follower ring, which can freely
slide on the spigot end or plane end of other pipes. An elastic rubber gasket is tightly
pressed between the annular spaces of socket by means of bolts.
In the beginning while fixing the follower ring some space is left between the socket
base and the spigot end for the free movement of the pipes under variation of
temperature.
In this way when the pipe expands the socket end moves forward and when the pipe
contracts, it move backward in the space provided for it. The elastic rubber gasket in
every position keeps the joint water tight.
EXPANSION JOINT
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 50
52. This type of joint is mostly used for joining big diameter concrete and
asbestos cement pipes.
The ends of the two pipes are brought in one level before each other.
Then rubber gasket between steel rings or jute rope socked in cement is
kept in the grove and the collar is placed at the joint so that it should have
same lap on both the pipes.
Now 1:1 cement mortar is filled in the space between the pipes and the
collar.

66. It is suitable for old towns and cities having no
definite pattern of roads
This is also called Tree system
In this system, there is main supply pipe, from
which originates (generally at right angles) a
number submain pipes. Each submain, then
divides into several branch pipes, called laterals
This system is suitable for old towns and cities
having no definite pattern roads.
The water supply mains have then to be taken
along the main roads branches taken off
wherever needed, thus resulting in the
formation of a number dead ends
LAYOUT OF DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
DEAD END SYSTEM
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 66
67. ADVANTAGES
The design calculations are simple and
easy. It is possible to determine
discharge and pressure in each pipe
very accurately.
Lesser number of cut off valves
(i.e. sluice valves) are required.
Pipe laying is simple.
Shorter pipe lengths are needed.
It is cheap and simple and can be
extended easily.
DISADVANTAGES
Due to a number of dead ends in the
system, there is stagnation of water and
accumulation of sediment at dead ends.
A large number of scour valves are
required at dead ends, for the removal of
sediments
During repairs, the large portion of
distribution area is affected.
Since in this system, the discharge is
reaching a point from only one direction
the supplies during fire fighting cannot
be increased by diverting any other

68. This system is also known as 'reticulated
system' or 'interlaced system
It is most convenient for towns having
rectangular layout of roads.
Actually, this system is an improvement
over dead-end system. All the dead ends
are interconnected with each other and
water circulates freely throughout system.
LAYOUT OF DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
GRID IRON SYSTEM
BY : DHARA D.DATTANI 68
69. ADVANTAGES
There is free circulation of water, without
any stagnation or sediment deposit.
Due to inter connection, water is
available at each point with minimum
loss of head.
In case of repairs, only very small area
of the distribution system is affected.
Enough water is available in the streets
for fire fighting, since hydrants will draw
water from more than one side.
DISADVANTAGES
This system requires more length
of pipe lines and a large number of
sluice valves(i.e. cut-off valves).
Construction is costlier
Analysis of pressure ,discharge
and velocities are difficult
If one section is to be repaired ,
many number of valve needs to be
closed
