Field Evaluation of Different Check Valve Designs and Surge Pressure Measurement in a Municipal Water Pumping StationÂ
Overview: During a municipal water pump station upgrade, hydraulic engineers got approval to perform field tests to assess the waterhammer (pressure surge) transients. Surge pressure measurements were taken after an induced pump power loss and subsequent check valve slam. They also developed a computer model to see how well available software could simulate the produced transients. This data was gathered to provide guidance to the municipality on future project work.
