“…In these pipelines, as well as in metal, transient states may occur during the flow of liquids. From previous work carried out by the authors of this study [28][29][30][31], it turned out that the phenomena accompanying unsteady flows in metal pipelines such as: cavitation [1,7,14,21,35], unsteady friction [5,13,[25][26][27] or the interaction of the walls of the pipe with the flow (fluid structure interaction) [9,11,16] also plays an important role in plastic pipes. The phenomenon that is most responsible for flow damping is the viscoelasticity of the material of the pipe [2,10,[28][29][30][31].…”
