Description & Specifications
Water Hammer Demonstration Unit
Technical Specification
The time required for the positive pressure wave to travel through the
pipe is used to calculate the speed of sound in water. When the pressure
attains the vapour pressure of the water in the conduit, it causes
cavitation. Closing the pneumatic valve causes the pressure to rapidly
attain a theoretical value and remain practically constant as the shock
wave travels the length of the pipe, returning to the transducer as a
negative pressure wave. The apparatus is designed to demonstrate shock
waves in water at sonic velocity.
Technical Specifications:-
The Water Hammer Demonstration Unit comprises:
• 1 pressure transducer upstream and 1 pressure transducer downstream of the coil.

• 1 pneumatic valve.
• 1 Bourdon gauge.
• 1 control cabinet.
• 1 water tank with drain valve.
• 1 pump.
• 1 bypass valve.
• 1 connection to a vertical tube with a bleed valve to atmospheric pressure for controlling entrapped air volume.
Dimensions and Weight
• Weight : about 100 Kg.
• 1350 x 650 x 2150 mm.
