Analysis and control of surge pressure in pumping mains

When flow velocity in a piping system is varied rapidly as may be caused by valve or pump operations, pressure waves associated with the compressibility of the liquid are generated which propagate at close to the speed of sound. The transient pressures are commonly referred to as pressure surges or...
