Time required to close Valve for Gradual Closure of Valves Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Time Required to Close Valve = (Density of Fluid Inside the Pipe*Length of Pipe*Flow Velocity through Pipe)/Intensity of Pressure of Wave
t_c = (ρ'*L*V_f)/I
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Time Required to Close Valve - (Measured in Second) - Time required to close valve is the amount of time required for closing the valve.
Density of Fluid Inside the Pipe - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density of Fluid Inside the Pipe material shows the mass of the liquid in a specific given volume. This is taken as mass per unit volume.
Length of Pipe - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Pipe describes the length of the pipe in which the liquid is flowing.
Flow Velocity through Pipe - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Flow Velocity through Pipe is the velocity of the flow of any fluid from the pipe.
Intensity of Pressure of Wave - (Measured in Pascal) - The Intensity of Pressure of Wave is defined as the pressure intensity of the wave produced at the gradual closing of valve.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Density of Fluid Inside the Pipe: 1010 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1010 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Pipe: 1200 Meter --> 1200 Meter No Conversion Required
Flow Velocity through Pipe: 12.5 Meter per Second --> 12.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Intensity of Pressure of Wave: 28280 Newton per Square Meter --> 28280 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t_c = (ρ'*L*V_f)/I --> (1010*1200*12.5)/28280

Evaluating ... ...

t_c = 535.714285714286

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

535.714285714286 Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

535.714285714286 ≈ 535.7143 Second <-- Time Required to Close Valve

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

Velocity at section 2-2 for sudden contraction

Go Velocity of Fluid at Section 2 = (sqrt(Loss of Head Sudden Contraction*2*[g]))/((1/Coefficient of Contraction in Pipe)-1)

Velocity at section 1-1 for sudden enlargement

Go Velocity of Fluid at Section 1 = Velocity of Fluid at Section 2+sqrt(Loss of Head Sudden Enlargement*2*[g])

Velocity at section 2-2 for sudden enlargement

Go Velocity of Fluid at Section 2 = Velocity of Fluid at Section 1-sqrt(Loss of Head Sudden Enlargement*2*[g])

Velocity of fluid in pipe for head loss at entrance of pipe

Go Velocity = sqrt((Head Loss at Pipe Entrance*2*[g])/0.5)

Time required to close Valve for Gradual Closure of Valves Formula

Time Required to Close Valve = (Density of Fluid Inside the Pipe*Length of Pipe*Flow Velocity through Pipe)/Intensity of Pressure of Wave
t_c = (ρ'*L*V_f)/I

What is water hammer in pipes?

Water hammer is a phenomenon that can occur in any piping system where valves are used to control the flow of liquids or steam.

How water hammer effect pipes?

More than just produce an annoying clamor, a water hammer can actually damage the pipe connections and joints, resulting in leaks and costly repairs. Or worse, the noise may also indicate a larger problem like excessive pressure in your water supply lines or loose piping.
