Dears, I am currently working on a project that requires the study of water hammer/surge analysis of several lines of about 4000 meters in length, a typical facility for feeding finished hydrocarbons to ships from storage tanks. Our processes department is working on the hydraulic study of the...

but, do you consider this method as correct to analyze the water hammer in the piping system?

Hello, Please, find attached an example of a piping system. Considering water hammer effect because the valve at node 60. I want to analize in a static model the pressure effect in my piping system. I consider that the wave return to the pipe and I have to introduce a force in each change of...

Hello all, I would like to input a water hammer effect into a static model. Could anyone explain if it is correct to introduce forces according with water hammer effect into the elbows? Could anyone comment his own experience on this subjet? Thanks in advance.

Hi, Could anyone recommend some introducing guide, examples calculations, bibliography or something relating with the dynamic piping analysis? Thanks in advance.

Thank you cvg. Does anyone ff is it in Europe??

Hello all, I am designing a buried pipe system for drinking proyect with carbon steel pipes. Could anyone to help me to select the correct coating (internally and externally)? Do you recomend me any good bibliography or design guide? Thanks in advance.

EnergyMix, The reason is that the pipe is stainless steel (each mm of material increase the cost) and the fluid is not dangerous. This is the reason because I would like to select less thickness.

BigInch, What do you mean when you said "limited to around 100"? 100? Thanks in advance.

Hello all, I would like to know if there is some restricction to select the minimun wall tickness in metallic buried pipes? In the european code EN-13480, the part 6 (Requirements for buried piping) there is a table with the following restricctions for the wall thickness: DN Mininum...

Hello, Could anyone help me to know what kind of flange is defined by the standard DIN 2501? Thank you.

Hello, I would like to know if anyone knows a method to estimate the piping material in project in the preliminary phase, with the P&IDs and simple Layouts. Could you recomend me some bibliography? Thanks in advance.
