The transmission line method is a very efficient technique for dynamic modelling of flow in pipelines, and uses delay elements to represent wave propagation. In this paper, an existing transmission line method is investigated and shown to have some deficiencies. Some adjustments are proposed to avoid these deficiencies and enhance the transient and steady-state accuracy. Very good agreement is obtained between this adjusted transmission line method and an analytical model. The method has been implemented in simulations of a number of highly dynamic systems, and has been found to be robust and reliable.
