Design of Surge Tank
Design of Surge Tank
(OP)
We are currently designing a 16.4MW hydro electric power plant with gross head of 295m, Qd=7.27cms, pipe dia = 1.3m which involes wier, conveyance line, surge tank, penstock line and power plant. I need some advice and reference/spreadsheet in designing a surge tank especially the height.
Thanks
Thanks






RE: Design of Surge Tank
I did one about 35 years ago for a local hydroelectric company and, if memory serves me right, we used some design information from the Corps of Engineers.
That was before the age of spreadsheets...
