Hydraulic transients in transmission and distribution systems
Water hammer can degrade the integrity of a transmission or distribution system in one of two ways: through catastrophic failure or by benign failure. Catastrophic failure occurs during a water hammer event when pipes rupture, joints move, excessive noise occurs, etc. Benign failure may occur over a period of years and may consist of lining failure, pipe wall pitting, and foul water intrusion. Five case studies are cited, which are typical of many others: Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA), Las Vegas, Nevada; City of Gresham, Oregon; Salt Lake County, Utah; Rockdale County, Georgia; and The City of Atlanta, Georgia. Methods of restructuring the steady-state models for water hammer analyses are discussed. The unique response and associated problems in the five systems are highlighted. Recommendations for mitigation of surge problems are suggested for each of the five systems.
