WATER HAMMER 

WATER HAMMER - TRANSIENT ANALYSIS - SURGE ANALYSIS
PIPELINE AND WATER MAINS DESIGN - FLOW CONTROL 

We spetialize in steady state analysis and transient analysis of presurized pipeline systems to provide flow control and surge protection.

Analysis is carried out by means of hydraulic modeling for both steady state and transient flow conditions. We have several years of specific experience in this field, with project references in all Latin America. 

 

Sincerely,

 

Ing. Luis A. Conti
