Abstract:As the new terminal in Dongying is just 20km away from the tank farm, the ship pump head is not enough to overcome the frictional resistance, so the materials can’t be directly transported to the tank farm. After analysis and computation, we raise a proposal of installing a pump station on the terminal, so as to make good use of the space on the terminal platform. Furthermore, we carry out a water hammer analysis to test whether transient water hammer pressure exceeds the designed pressure of pipe, and adjust the proposal to decrease transient water hammer pressure if it is higher.
