Ladybower Reservoir | Scour Valves Refurbishment | Blackhall Engineering
Ladybower Reservoir is a large Y-shaped reservoir, originally built in the period between 1935 and 1943 and is located in the Upper Derwent Valley, at the heart of the Peak District National Park. The capacity of the reservoir is 27 million cubic meters and was officially opened by King George VI on 24th September 1945.
In 2018, during statuary inspections concerns were raised by the reservoir's panel engineer that the Larner-Johnson scour Needle valves in the dam valve tower were not shutting off correctly. The Blackhall valvologists were called in to inspect and diagnose the problem and conduct feasibility studies to provide the best possible refurbishment options in 2018.

    100 years. On an emergency dam dewatering line. Tested once every 3 to 5 years with no flow. No problem for most valves. In Cali, we still have dam dewatering valves from 1936 (but we're looking to replace them). Of course it's best to keep them fully wet or fully dry so it doesn't have build up from evaporation. What pressure? 150 psi / 10 bar?

    It looks to be very compact considering it's overall function. So would I be right in saying that it uses twin worm gear drives for the linear part of the actuation mechanism and a combination of reduction / directional change gearbox(es), driveshafts and universal joints (under the rubber boots) for the power transition to them? I would expect such a design to be very long lasting and require little maintenance, not that I am an actual engineer.

    Getting that stem in the wedge with a crane on site is quite a remarkable achievement! How can you reach zero leakage with a metal to metal seating on a wedge gate valve?

    Nevermind. It's been proven simple designs using flat cylindrical plates, w a fraction of inch gap at full open, produces non destructive laminar flow. At thousands of gallons a minute with surface areas of several inches.
