We offer interactive, technical pressure surge training in the physics of pressure surges to enable hydraulic engineers, operators and transient modellers to:
- determine the potential for pressure surges on your system
- determine the likelihood of failures
- design safer systems
- review and specify analyses more critically.
Our pressure surge training course will give your engineers and modellers:
- an in depth understanding of the physics of pressure surge
- an ability to evaluate a system to determine whether pressure surge is a problem without a computer
- an ability to estimate the size of potential surge protection without a computer
- an understanding of the modelling software and relative limitations
- an understanding of surge analysis strategies and methodologies
- safe check valve and air valve design skills
| Training Course Day 1 | Pressure Surges |
| Day 1 is a general introduction to hydraulic transients. Delegates should be competent in steady state hydraulics, pump curves, system curves and friction. While it is not designed for surge modellers, many experienced surge modellers have found it valuable to have this insight into the subject of their modelling. | Contents include: – Pump Stop Surge – Valve Close Surge – Pump Start/Priming Surge – Air Vessel Design – What to look for in a surge analysis report |
| Training Course Day 2 | Pressure Surge Modelling |
| Day 2 focusses more on pressure surge modelling. It will give modellers an opportunity to explore modelling strategies for various scenarios. It is essential that Day 1 has been completed before attending Day 2. Non modellers will also benefit from an improved understanding of check valve design, and more complex issues than are dealt with on Day 1. | – A comparison of surge analysis software types – Surge analysis strategies – Solution design and optimisation – Check valve design – Air Valves, vacuum breakers and antislam – Suction considerations – Summary discussion and review of issues |
