EXAMPLE: A line is required to provide 20 L/s of water from a dam to a high level storage tank located 5000 m away. The tank has a maximum water elevation of 100 m and the minimum water elevation in the dam is 70 m. The maximum flow velocity is required to be limited to 1.0 m/s to minimize water hammer effects.
