  • METHOD FOR DETERMINING LIQUID CONSUMPTIONS OF A PLURALITY LIQUID CONSUMERS
    Publication number: 20210293653
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining liquid consumptions of a plurality of liquid consumers (1, 2, 3), comprising at least the following steps: a) Detecting at least one liquid consumption process (4) on a liquid line (5), by means of which a liquid can be supplied to the plurality of liquid consumers (1, 2, 3); b) Recording at least one piece of information about the at least one liquid consumption process (4), c) Assigning the at least one liquid consumption process (4) to at least one liquid consumer class by means of a machine-learned algorithm, which determines the at least one liquid consumer class as a function of the at least one piece of information recorded and under consideration of information about previously detected liquid consumption processes (4).
