Parameters affecting water-hammer wave attenuation, shape and timing—Part 2: Case studies

Abstract: This twin paper investigates parameters that may significantly affect water-hammer wave attenuation, shape and timing. Possible sources that may affect the waveform predicted by classical water hammer-theory include unsteady friction, cavitation (including column separation and trapped air pockets), a number of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) effects, viscoelastic behaviour of the pipe-wall material, leakages and blockages. Part 1 of the twin paper presents the mathematical tools needed to model these source… Show more

“…The attenuation of water-hammer wave along a pressurized scheme is caused by energy dissipation induced by many factors such as surge control devices, the presence of dissolved air in water, the shear stress effect and the inelastic behaviour of the pipe or shaft wall, leakage and the FSI (Bergant et al 2008a(Bergant et al , 2008b. The inelastic behaviour is important in plastic pipes and related to the mechanical properties of the pipe wall and to the fluid wave frequency (Hachem and Schleiss 2011).…”

“…Homogeneously distributed air bubbles or trapped air pockets in a liquid pipeline system can significantly reduce pressure wave propagation velocity (wave speed) and cause changes in the attenuation, shape and timing of pressure waves. This depends on the amount of the air in bubbles and pockets [3], [4]. The effects of entrapped or entrained air on surge pressures can be either beneficial or detrimental.…”

“…El sistema analizado está incluido en Bergant et al (2008) Además, a (inicial) = 1319 (m/s), N = cantidad de subtramos de la discretización = 16 y ∆t = paso de tiempo computacional (inicial) = 0.0017627 (s), siendo C n = número de Courant (inicial) = a·∆t/(L/N) = 1319×0.0017627/(37.23/16) = 1.0. Se supondrá que la masa de aire disuelto se distribuye en cada una de las secciones de la tubería, y que en todo momento la presión en el sistema será mayor que la presión de vapor, lo cual evitará la aparición de bolsas de aire y la subsecuente separación de la columna de agua.…”

“…Las Figuras 2 y 3 comparan las curvas de presión vs. tiempo en el nodo intermedio de la tubería y en el nodo donde se ubica la válvula, donde se aprecia que el MC (m = 0.0027 kg/m 3 ) presenta una atenuación mayor en relación al MDFI (m = 0.0027 kg/m 3 ), siendo que este último registra un mejor nivel de ajuste al resultado entregado por la literatura (Bergant et al, 2008). El resultado insatisfactorio del MC se debe a que el flujo con aire disuelto hace disminuir la magnitud original de a , haciendo por tanto que C n disminuya del valor inicial 1.00 a 0.55, con el consiguiente impacto en la magnitud y frecuencia de las presiones debido al efecto de interpolación.…”
