Thanks for the reply Homayun. I understand that the instantaneous pressure can easily be above design pressure (from simple Joukowski eqn), but my question is that once the pressure oscillations have died down, can the final or settle-out pressure be greater than the pump shut-off pressure? I`m...
Dear All,
I’ve got a liquid pipeline fed by centrifugal pumps. Following a surge event (outlet ESD valve rapidly closed, pumps left running), is it possible for the line to have a final or settle-out pressure greater than the pump shut-off pressure? If the surge pressure wave is still...
