Abstract: To simulate transient cavitating pipe flow, the discrete gas cavity model (DGCM) is combined with first-order and second-order finite-volume method (FVM) Godunov-type schemes. The earlier discrete vapor cavity model (DVCM) ...

Abstract: Analytical formulas for laminar water hammer in horizontal pipes were extended and simplified into a compact mathematical form based on dimensionless parameters: dimensionless time, water hammer number, etc. Detailed ...
