Surge Tank Design Considerations for Controlling Water Hammer Effects at Hydro-electric Power Plants

A theoretical analysis based on some design considerations for surge tanks is carried out. The effects of different parameters such as the friction losses coefficient and the surge tank cross-sectional area on the water surface oscillations tank and the total discharge are investigated. System of non-linear ordinary differential equations are numerically solved and manipulated. Results show tha...

Analysis and Design of a Simple Surge Tank (RESEARCH NOTE)

In a hydroelectric power plant or in a pumping station in order to avoid sudden large increase of pressure due to instantaneous valve closure sometimes a surge tank is installed. The height of surge tank is designed by the highest possible water level during the operation. The theoretical treatment of oscillation in a surge tank is difficult because of the non-linearity of friction term in the ...
