Surge tanks are used for dissipate the water hammer pressure in high head hydropower project.
Commonly used surge tanks have one surge chamber. A double chamber surge tanks were introduced in
two high head hydropower projects in Pakistan. In the present study hydraulic design of surge tanks for
the two potential sites in Pakistan were analyzed for surge wave height and time to dissipate. Surge tanks
designed for Golen Gol hydropower project and Satpara hydropower project were analyzed for the
hydraulic transient under the two operational scenarios i.e. complete closure and complete opening. It
was concluded that for Satpara hydropower plant, surge tank without chamber and surge tank with two
chambers produces high range of surges to cause undesirably heavy governor movement. While surge
tank with lower chamber produces the minimum surge height as compared to other types, so the
hydraulic behavior of surge tank with lower chamber is more stable than other types of surge tanks.
Similarly for Golen Gol hydropower plant surge tank with two chambers produces better surge
protection as compared to surge tank with single chamber and no chamber.
