Depending on the type of turbine, H0 can be totally converted into kinetic energy or partitioned between pressure
related energy and kinetic energy
e.g;
D := 2.112 m;
L := 2189 m;
= 0.6*0.001 m;
Yu=1418 m
HV= Yu-LJ
(MIND: in S.Fiorano, the turbine max output
is MW 4x140 = 560, with Q =22.5*2 cm/s)

purpose
Long-medium term storage
(e.g., Saviore)
In all this cases spillways (sfioratori, luci) are present in order to controll overflow (dams) and
guarantee unaltered tailwater levels during floods.
The weir in itself can be regarded as a spillway so that the two terms are often interchangeable.
Often spillways have mobile devices by which they can actively control the water level upstream.
In such a case they are gated spillways, where the gate can be flat, sector or radial. In this cases a
first temptative discharge relationship can be provided by theoretical scheme but, with the exception
of the simplest cases, is should more effectively be determined experimentally or on physical models

Conclusions:
The percentage head loss is reasonable and rather small
In relative terms, if the pipe length is small, local head losses may be significative
For instance, supposing 7200 hours/year of functioning, the head loss at the trashrack implies an
yearly energy loss of 1483 kWh (9806*3*0.007/1000*7200)

This is a consequence of the hypothesis on the absence of energy dissipation within the system; The maximum
oscillations are important because they are considered in the plant design, in order to find out maximum pressures
in the tunnel (Zmax > 0) and to avoid air entrance (Zmax < 0) within the tunnel.
The contraction at the basis of the surge tank is important because it decreases both T and the maximum elevation.
However its value must be chosen carefully. An optimal contraction is such that the piezometric head is kept
constant throughout the oscillation at the surge tank entrance so that z+head loss = Zmax

Where is proportional to the valve opening, that is the quantity whose variation in time can be controlled.The
variation of Q implies a corresponding variation of the average velocity U immediately upstream in the penstock;

Let us write these equations for a time series built as 0 < t1 < T ; t 2 = t1 + T ; t3 = t 2 + T ; ... t n = t n 1 + T ;

By using this recursive equation one can get the value of the piezometric head at the penstock outlet at time ti,
i=1,2..n, spaced of T one from the other. However, given that ti, can be chosen at will under the condition
0< ti, <T, this equation practically provides the function h(0,t).
In order to use it, one must know the valve closing law t /0, that starts from 1 if the valve is initially open. If the
valve is initially closed, the equation are made dimensionless with respect to the final steady condition in order to
avoid the situation 0=0.
After choosing t1, being z0 =1, the equation above provides z1 from which one computes h1. Then one iterates
obtaining h2 and so forth
Note that:
1) after that the valve is closed, t /0, =0 so that the equation above simplifies as.
This equation clearly implies that the piezometric head oscillates without damping
around h0 with a periodicity 2T
2) If a complete shut down at time occurs with < T, choosing < t1 <T, being 1
/0=0, one gets z 2 + 1 2 = cU 0 (1 0 ) that immediately provides Joukowsky

equation.

When > T, the maximum pressure at the penstock outlet occurs at t=T and is given by the Michauds relation
p = cU 0
2 U 0 L
It clearly shows the three quantity (L,U0, ) on which to operate in order to keep p as low as possible.
The same approach that has been used by Allievi for evaluating h(t) at the outlet can be used also for intermediate
station s along the penstock. However, in the following we shall introduce a different type of numerical procedure,
that is more general and that will be used also for unsteady open channel flow

The following procedure changes the two PDEs into a single Ordinary Differential Equation. To this purpose let
us multiply the first eq. times the Lagrange multiplier and let us add it to the second

These equations are true only along the lines C+ and C - in space. This property allows to trasnform the original PDE
problem into a much simpler ODE problem. Actually, If one consider the meaning of the substantial derivative
operator, that corresponds to a lagrangian variation along the flow direction, one can easily accepts that along the 2
characteristic lines C+ and C- the 2 systems can be written in a lagrangian way as

These equations are the basis for the finite-difference solution of the water hammer problem. Let us suppose, for
simplicitys sake that the penstock is prismatic with uniform properties. In such a case c is constant and the 2
characteristic lines, C+ and C- , define two sets of straight lines in the s-t plane along which pressure and velocity
variations propagate.

compute U and h at P, U P and h P, one solves the

Where J is evaluated in A and B if an explicit approximation is deemed adequate, otherwise in P by solving a non
linear system. Due to reversal of the flow direction, the slope friction must be evaluated as
