Discharge in m3/s
• Calculated from water requirement / total water intake
Velocity of flow in m/s
• MS pipe Upto 3,0 m/s as per CWC Guidelines
• MS pipe lined – upto 2.1 m/s as per CPHEEO
• Static Head = Full supply level at DC / Max. peak point – Lifting water level
in Pump House
• Friction loss is calculated from Hazen Williams / Modified Hazen Williams
Formula
Where :
hL = frictional head loss in pipe length L, m
Q = flow (discharge), m3/sec
L = length of pipe, m
D = inside diameter of pipe, m
C = 140 for MS & HDPE pipe
Head Loss may be calculated From Below Modified Hazen Williams Formula
Where :
Hf = frictional head loss in pipe length L, m
Q = flow (discharge), m3/sec
L = length of pipe, m
D = inside diameter of pipe, m
CR = Modified Hazen William’s constant = 1

DH = Pressure increase
g is up surge &
pressure
decrease is down
a = pressure wave velocity surge
V = Flow Velocity
DH = Surge Pressure
The equation focuses only on UPSURGE
g = Acceleration due to gravity
(& not on down surge)

SURGE ANALYSIS PROGRAM - SAP
Waterhammer or surge or hydraulic transients is a phenomenon occurring
in closed conduit or pipe flows, associated with rapid changes in
discharge in the pipe.
