Water Hammer Pressure given Ratio of Velocity of Water to Velocity of Sound in Water Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Water Hammer Pressure in Environmental Eng. = (Ratio of Velocities*Bulk Modulus of Water)
P_w = (V_R*K_w)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Water Hammer Pressure in Environmental Eng. - (Measured in Pascal) - Water Hammer Pressure in Environmental Eng. is defined as pressure surge caused by a rapid change in flow velocity in the pipeline.
Ratio of Velocities - Ratio of Velocities is the ratio of velocity of water to velocity of sound in water.
Bulk Modulus of Water - (Measured in Pascal) - Bulk Modulus of Water is defined as the proportion of volumetric stress linked to the volumetric strain of definite material, although the deformation of the material is within the elastic limit.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Ratio of Velocities: 0.00939 --> No Conversion Required
Bulk Modulus of Water: 191.69 Megapascal --> 191690000 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_w = (V_R*K_w) --> (0.00939*191690000)

Evaluating ... ...

P_w = 1799969.1

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1799969.1 Pascal -->1.7999691 Megapascal (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

1.7999691 ≈ 1.799969 Megapascal <-- Water Hammer Pressure in Environmental Eng.

What is Water Hammer Principle?

Water Hammer is a pressure surge or wave caused when a fluid (usually a liquid but sometimes also a gas) in motion is forced to stop or change direction suddenly (momentum change). As soon as steam leaves the boiler, it starts losing heat.
