Advanced water hammer analysis and design

0.1000 EFTS
09 Jul 2012 - 11 Nov 2012 		↓Other occurrences

Description

The course will focus on the modelling of water hammer in pipelines for unsteady pipeline design. Technical material in this course includes the modelling of advanced hydraulic elements such as surge vessels, check valves and pipe constrictions. The response of the system will be analysed in both the time and frequency domain using fundamental signal processing techniques. Students will be required to do their own research to determine how best to model complex hydraulic elements in their system.

Pre-requisites

ENNR404. RP: Students should have a good understanding of how unsteady flow can be modelled using method of characteristics prior to taking this course. Strong coding skills in Matlab (or another language) is required
