Pressure Surges, Fluid Transients and Water Hammer all refer to potentially dangerous pressure fluctuations in pipes containing fluids. Developments in this field are driven by incidents and accidents such as those reported in a wide range of industrial systems: from 6 mm titanium tubes carrying hydrazine in satellites to 13 m concrete pipes conveying water in manmade rivers.
Application areas range from mining to aerospace and from physiology to nuclear power. Positive use of the phenomenon is also possible: in hydraulic ram pumps, in industrial cleaning processes, in non-intrusive blockage and leakage detection, and in everybody's circulation of blood.
The Pressure Surges conference series has been running since 1972. This conference benefits from that 50 year plus pedigree and continues to bring together practical engineers and theoretical academics, young and old, inexperienced and specialist, from all over the world. It is the leading conference in the area and the proceedings are proven books of reference for anyone interested in the subject.
The 15th conference will embrace both traditional and novel subjects. Industrial papers will present case studies, each telling its own story. Research papers will give updates on the latest developments in modelling, simulating and validating pressure surges. Dedicated Forum papers will stimulate audience interaction with presenters and will complement other discussion and debate sessions dedicated to interactive participation.
One focus of this 15th conference is on adapting pressure surge design to a changing world, taking into account climate awareness and new energy provision in topics such as carbon capture and storage, district heating, water power, etc.
Renowned specialists will be invited to lead distinct sessions dedicated to these contemporary themes.
