Abstract:The pipeline section of the Water Diversion Project from Yellow River to Jiaodong Area features a long route, large height difference, and complex hydraulic structures (buildings). During the practice over the years, accidental working conditions have occasionally occurred in the pressure pipelines, and the regulation and storage function of high-level water tanks is directly related to the operation safety. Taking the newly-built and capacity-increased high-level water tank as the research object, this paper introduces the project overview and regulation-storage function before the completion of the water tank. Meanwhile, it analyzes the water level and volume based on the results of the water-tightness test, as well as the regulation-storage function benefits exerted after the completion of the capacity-increased high-level water tank, aiming to explore its functional benefits in water diversion in the future.
