Waterhammer Analysis By Hand
Waterhammer Analysis By Hand
(OP)
Hi Eng's!
Can somebody tell me or give me link to an accepted method of doing a waterhammer analysis by hand? The situation is a sewer forcemain of app. 800m lenght between two liftstations - cont. up-slope. Especially I would like to determine the low-pressure curve over the entire pipe! Is that possible by hand? Thanks!

RE: Waterhammer Analysis By Hand
The book by Parmekian 1965 would have them, I think?
You could get the freeware from the US Army Corps called Whamo. It wouldnt take more time than learning the graphical method.
Try the Bergeron method described here:-
