Pipe Surge & Water Hammer Apparatus.
1] Self‐contained unit designed to demonstrate the phenomena of
pipe surge and water hammer.
[2] Unit includes two separate test pipes, service module and
constant head tank.
[3] Two pressure transducers provide electrical signals for
connection to a dual trace storage oscilloscope with an integral
printer output.
[4] Surge shaft: 44mm I/D x 800mm high. Water hammer test pipe:
22mm I/D x 3m long ST/ST. Pressure transducers: range ‐1 to 69
bar (13.5 bar max operating) [5] Demonstration capabilities:
‐ Demonstration of pipe surge.
‐ Determination of oscillatory characteristics of the surge shaft.
‐ Demonstration of frictional head loss between reservoir and surge
shaft ‐ Comparison between theoretical and measured pressure profiles
produced by water hammer.
‐ Using a dual trace storage oscilloscope to record transient water
hammer pressure profiles.
‐ Measuring the pressure profile characteristics.
‐ Determination of the velocity of sound through a fluid in a pipe.
‐ Demonstration of the effects of cavitation on subsequent cycles.
