Pipeline Parameter
Pipeline parameter is proportional to { (maximum water-hammer pressure rise) / (2 static pressure) } and is used in momentum transfer in general and hydraulic transients calculations in particular. It is normally defined in the following form :
Where: |
a |
= |
Wave velocity |
g |
= |
Gravitational acceleration |
H |
= |
Static head |
Vo |
= |
Initial velocity |
