This slide presentation outlines information on using distribution system modeling to identify the potential for low pressure surge events. Topic questions addressed include: are significant negative pressures always created in thedistribution system each time a pump shuts down;does floating storage provide beneficial effects;what are the general distribution systemcharacteristics that make distribution systems susceptible tolow/ negative pressures; and,how useful is distribution system modeling for identifying vulnerable areas of the full-scale distribution system?
