ResumoHydraulic transients in hydropower plant Jajce II (Bosnia and Herzegovina) were simulated with 1D unsteady pipe flow model. High accuracy of the model was accomplished with the use of non-conservative formulation of an unsteady pipe flow model incorporating a modified instantaneous acceleration-based unsteady friction model and second order flux limited numerical scheme. In order to apply the model, complex dual surge tank geometry needed to be represented with a unified surge tank. The numerical model was validated against the measured data on three simulation scenarios, defined with different turbine discharge reductions. Simulation results show a very good agreement between the computed and measured piezometric heads, both in amplitude and frequency of the oscillation.
