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: (image)
I want to use vacuum breaker valve but it doesen't work..maybe i don't modele it correctly?
Sincerly,
