Abstract:When designing a hydropower plant with a long pressure penstock, special attention must be paid to the pressure conditions in the penstock, especially during emergency flow shutdown. In this paper, the main principles of the calculation of static pressure rise in the pressure pipeline during rapid flow shutdown are presented. The results obtained by analytical methods (calculation of direct and indirect water hammer) and numerical methods (mathematical modelling in Matlab software environment) are compared on … Show more
