Abstract: The basis for and field trials of two leak detection algorithms by transient flow simulations are presented. Data noise in pressure and flow measurements are considered. Noise is found to limit ...

Abstract: This paper presents a comparison of two solutions, a numerical and an analytic, to an idealized problem of frictionless transient gas flow driven by internal heating. The purpose of such a ...

Abstract: The hydraulic torque on the disk of a swing check valve strongly influences the dynamic valve-fluid interaction. This torque is difficult to quantify. In this study, the hydraulic torque is ...
