Thank you georgeverghese for you're ansewers!! Actually it didn't exceed the design pressure but the supports are not able to handle the generated forces as you said!.. umm i don't know how to modelize the PIC - PCV loop on the software..
gerhardl: because on AFT, vacuum breaker valve acts as a...
If this bubbles exist now, i guess they will exist during water flow too. I want to evaluate the loads generated by water hammer (and amplified by these bubbles) and see their effects on the pipeline by Caesar Software..
LittleInch: 2321 meters is the lengh of the pipe P1 only.(between valves).. Yeah that's why the software refuses to model the transient event with cavitation model before resolving this problem in the steady state.
pennpiper : i'm sorry..this line is not pigged because it's just a flush line...
Hi,
Thank you so much for your ansewrs.
LittleInch: Actually i'm trying to resolve the problem at steady state "NO FLOW IN THE LINE: valve closed". Unfortunatly , there is vapor at this point. The end point is a Tank.
pennpiper: the line is 36 inch , P1 is 2321 meters, the difference between the...
I'm using AFT impulse, and i have pipline with no flow initially (valve closed). I have notification that vapor exists in this pipeline in steady state and so i cannot move to the transient analysis.what can i do?
I tried to use vacuum breaker valve baut it doesn't work...

Hello,
I'm using AFT impulse for water hammer analysis. i have a pipline with no flow initially (valve closed)and i have notification that vapor exists in this pipeline in steady state and so, i cannot move to the transient analysis...what can i do?
This is what it look like...
