	abstract = {<p>Air vessels are widely used in water distribution system to protect from pump power failure. The process of sizing air vessels is very important in obtaining the the most economical vessel size and correct size of inlet/out/outlet pipe diameters that will protect the pipe system. This paper presents the developed model TRANSNETP that is used in analyzing transient flow due to pump power failure in pipe network system using air vessel as a protection device and also determining the optimal volume and optimal inlet/outlet pipe diameter for air vessel</p>
