The simulation results were in good agreement with earlier experiments. The simulation result of air tanks installed on pipelines proved that the installation of air tanks is the most effective measure to reduce the water hammer associated with return flow caused by rapid closing of check valves. Other effective measures include the use of longer check-valve closure time or installation of the relief valves on the lower segments of the pipelines.展开更多
