how to form the water pipe scale faster
(OP)
As we know, it takes months to form the water pipe scale in the piping system. is there any easy way to form the water pipe scale faster (in a day or several hours)

A bit more definition of your ultimate goal may be helpful.

As we know, there are calcium carbonate and Mg(OH)2 in the water. when the water pass through a pipe, it will form a cake layer (water scale) inside of the pipe. it often takes months. Now I wish remove the water scale from the pipe by vibration. and i want validate whether this method is good or not . so i want form this kind of water scale in hours .

All you have to do is increase the dissolved solids. You can either use a RO unit to concentrate the background salts or you can add lime to the raw water.
Another way to increase the encourage the formation of scale is to increase the water temperature. You can also calculate the expected scale using the langelier index.
It will probably be helpful to you to review the link below as it was a study of scaling. You may find some ideas in the link.

we've had leaks where the pH was raised and had trouble in days if not hours.

As the main aim of the experiment is to test the removable of the scales from the surface by vibration. The scales generated by the accelerate mode might be reliably removed with the help of this method whereas the prolonged generated scales might prove this method to be not as reliable as the other technique,
So clearly you will introduce a subjective conclusion from this experiment. Might be if you can get a already scaled pipe from some junk dealer or other piping company, that will be make your experiment more realistic.
