Abstract

Newly developed equipment for damping hydraulic shocks in pressure hydrotransport facilities is reviewed in this article. This equipment includes a discharge, safety diaphragm, as well as a flexible diaphragm, which is connected to the main pipeline at both different ends of the backpressure valve. A rupture disc is attached to it from below and load is attached from above by means of a rod, so that it can efficiently act during movement of hydraulic fluid in the central main pipeline, i.e. when the flow to be transported contains abrasive contaminant of solid material. The load represents a piston, which is rigidly connected to the flexible diaphragm and the rupture disc and creates an airproof space filled with viscous fluid. At the same time, the lower space is isolated from the main pipeline by a flexible separating element before the backpressure valve and the upper space is also isolated by a flexible separating element located after the back pressure valve.
