Abstract: In this article, we simulate traveling liquid slugs in conduits, as they may occur in systems carrying high-pressure steam. We consider both horizontal and inclined pipes in which the slug is accelerated by a suddenly ...

Abstract: Many different methods have been devised to solve the nonlinear systems of equations that model water distribution networks. Probably the most popular is Todini and Pilati’s global gradient algorithm (GGA). Given the GGA’s ...
