Water Hammer Systems
Aeration
Experience Reliable and Efficient Water Hammer Solutions. When a system transitions from one
steady state condition to another, transient changes in flow and pressure occur as the system
settles into its final steady state. These transient conditions, commonly known as water
hammer, can lead to damaging pressure surges if left unaddressed. At EG, we specialize in
providing comprehensive analysis and designing tailored solutions to protect your system from
water hammer incidents.
SPECIFICATIONS
Our team utilizes cutting-edge surge analysis software to simulate and analyze the interaction of
all system components. By considering factors such as flow rate velocity, pipeline material, and
system boundary conditions (such as tanks, pumps, air valves, control valves, and changes in
pipeline diameter), we accurately predict the magnitude and duration of transient pressure
changes.
Water hammer protection system
A system changes from one steady-state condition to another there is a transient is a transient
change in flow and pressure as the system settles to the final steady state condition The
magnitude of transient pressure (or water hammer) and the time duration of the transient
condition depends on the flow rate velocity, pipeline material and the system boundary
condition such as tanks, pumps, air valves, control valves and changes in pipeline diameter, the
water hammer is a phenomenon generally known in the water industry EG performs a
comprehensive analysis for all the system components and their interaction, using our “surge
analysis software” to simulate the problem and design the best suited solution.
Water hammer protection system types
–The pressure vessel is provided with compressed air system to control the level of the
compresses air inside the vessel and automatically compensates for the dissolved.
-Self-aerated vessel The same theory as the previous system, but the recovery of discovered air
through a special valve.
– Air valves The installation of air valves on the water pipelines in the right places is necessary
to avoid the complications of water hammer phenomenon.
