Research on the Collaborative Optimization of One-Way Surge Tanks Based on Water Hammer Theory and Intelligent Optimization Algorithms

Abstract

AbstractA coupling optimization model is developed to coordinate the design of the one-way surge tank (OWST) volume and the valve closing rule. This approach aims to address the strong coupling regarding the parameters of the OWST and the inefficiency of ...Practical ApplicationsSurge pressures caused by pump failures or abrupt valve operations can severely impact the safety of long-distance water transmission systems, especially in high-elevation or uneven terrains. One-way surge tanks are commonly used to ...
