Abstract: The surge tanks, assumed to have no hydraulic loss at the bottom connection to the main discharge duct, are the simplest and safest protective device. An important number of pumping stations, part of the Romanian irrigation systems, were conceived with a surge tank mounted by the pump, on the discharge duct, in order to protect the installation from hydraulic shock. In practice, the sizing of such protection device usually implies a large volume of hydraulic calculation. Special charts (function of the hydraulic characteristics: discharge, geodetic head, diameter and length of the discharge duct) were conceived on the basis of the mathematical model of the hydraulic shock. They make the sizing more efficient and significantly reduce the time for the surge tank dimensioning.
