Question
Water (bulk modulus of elasticity=
2.2 x 103 MPa) is flowing with a
velocity of 2 m/s through an elastic
pipe (modulus of elasticity = 2.1 x 105
MPa) of diameter = 500 mm,
thickness = 5 mm and length = 2 km.
If a valve provided at the end of the
pipe is closed in 2s, what will be the
rise in pressure due to the resulting
water hammer?
