Of the main feed water pumps available and unavailable The importance of maximal head protection in order to protect the system Transient analyze on a complex system: feed water system. The fact that PIPENET take in consideration amortizations caused by fluid The differencesīetween differences between methods were insignificant and were generated by (Allievi correlations) and computational program (PIPENET). Started with solving a well know problem from technical literature andĬomparing the results between numerical calculation with numerical methods The capabilities of computational program PIPENET to solve water hammer

Generator level control valves - head limiter of main pumps available Pick upstream of Steam generator level control valves - head limiter of mainįigure 7. The results were under 2% difference - theĭifferences are mainly generated by the fact that PIPENET program take in theĬonsideration the damp due to fluid viscosity and the difference between speed Illustrated the pressure resulted in the standard problem of water hammer -Ĭlosing of a valve from a forced pipe. In pressure oscillations obtained by this method. Is simplified to determining the function F.ĭoes not take in consideration fluid viscosity and so there is no amortization Value of function F at the previous computational step so that the computation Method eliminates the function f based on the fact that it is equal with the Method utilized and in the same time should be correlated with closing valve Should be enough small in order to assure mathematical stability of numerical Of the first is made we will get other values for the analytical functions FĪnd f as well for pressure and speed. These values obtained at the first step are used as initial data The fluid, a - wave speed in the fluid, V 0 - fluid speed notĬonsisted of determination of functions F and f at the first step ofĬalculation. Pressure is given by Jukovik correlation: Length of the pipe from suction area to closing valve. In this situation of f s 0 and where L represents the Maximal overpressure is calculated before indirect wave is produced therefore Is pressure value, y 0 - initial pressure value, t - time, a - wave speed in fluid, g - gravitational acceleration, F - direct function of water hammer, f - indirect function (reflected. Integration by replacing variables (Euler and D’Alambert) with change ofīack to initial variable we obtain and deriving by variable x Allievi Water hammer is based on two fundamental correlations: We compared the pick pressure from the system with design pressure. Unavailable in the second case the head limiter of main pumps are available. Made in two cases: in the first case the head limiter of main pumps are Initiated by close of all level control valves of steam generators. At the end we made anĪpplication on a transient regime in a feedwater system. Situation that occurs in hydraulic installations. Order to observe - calibrate the PIPENET response compared with a known then an well know application of water in a forced pipe. We will make at the first an introduction to water hammer theory System is well design against water hammer due to the initial event analyzed.Īpproach to water hammer phenomena that occurs in nuclear and non nuclear Of the four level control valves of Steam Generators.Īttended pressure with design pressure of the system. We fulfill a complete system analyze of water hammer effect due to a fail close Take place and there are derivative descriptions of differential equations The elastic characteristic of pipe where the phenomena of hydraulic hammering We made the evaluation of the differencesīetween those two computational methods is made in order to the reveal theĬapabilities of the computational codes to solve hydraulic hammering problems. The PIPENET calculation is compared with a standard computational calculation
