Surge & Stress Analysis
Water Network Surge Analysis
Prevent pressure surge damage using hydraulic modeling
- Surge & Stress Analysis: Comprehensive assessment of pressure transients and mechanical stresses within piping and water distribution systems.
- Water Network Surge Analysis: Use advanced hydraulic modeling to predict and control pressure surges caused by sudden valve closures, pump startups, or shutdowns.
- Identify risk zones within the network where surge pressures could lead to pipe bursts or joint failures.
- Design and recommend surge control measures such as air chambers, surge tanks, and pressure relief valves.
- Assess mechanical stress on pipelines and fittings to ensure long-term structural integrity.
- Improve network reliability by optimizing operational strategies and emergency shutdown procedures.
Tools & Techniques Used:
AFT Impulse, Bentley HAMMER, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
Piping Stress Analysis
Ensure structural safety under operational loads and temperature changes
- Piping Stress Analysis: Detailed evaluation of piping systems to ensure structural safety and compliance with international design codes.
- Assess the impact of operational loads, temperature variations, seismic activity, and wind forces on pipe integrity.
- Identify potential overstress conditions that could lead to fatigue, vibration issues, or failure of supports and connections.
- Optimize pipe routing, support spacing, and flexibility to minimize stress concentrations.
- Verify that expansion joints, anchors, and guides are appropriately designed for thermal movement and mechanical loads.
- Improve overall reliability by simulating real-world operating conditions and applying corrective design measures before installation.
Tools Used:
Bentley HAMMER, CAESAR II
