I'm again in the process of doing surge studies. This time on an anhydrous liquid ammonia line (-28°F., ~50 psig). I can't seem to find a source for the wave speed (acoustic velocity) of liquid ammonia nor can I find the bulk modulus for ammonia. Can anyone point me to a reference for either of...
I'm looking for a suitable software package to analyze the transients associated with the cold start-up of a steam pipeline. The system will have a total of 35 km of 24" to 8" in two main trunklines with 20 to 30 ea. 6" and 4" branch lines that will be from 1/2 to 2 km long...
I'm in the process of designing a 113 kilometer long liquid sulphur pipeline and need to determine the transient pressures due to "waterhammer". To do this I need the modulus of elasticity of liquid sulphur in order to calculate the wave speed of the system. So far, I have not found...
