Surge pressure in a liquid conduit is often amplified extremely in the presence of trapped air or gases. In this paper the hydraulic transients in such cases were investigated, and on the basis of the results a method of absorption for surge pressure by means of an air chamber at the downstream end of conduit having a nozzle was studied. An appropriate arrangement of values of parameters in the presence of trapped air or gases absorbs the surge pressure most effectively.
