Q1 Q1 A) The sudden closure of valve at the end of a pipeline cause sudden change in the water velocity which in turn creates a phenomenon called water hammer. The water in motion is forced to stop or change direction suddenly (momentum change) and a pressure wave propagates in the pipe. It ’s also called hydraulic shock. The effect of this event can be effectively multiplied many times by the geometry of a piping system if the pressure wave is allowed to reflect‚ or bounce‚ back and forth

Mode Pipelines transportation. Which kinds of products are suitable for pipelines? Liquid and gases are transported in pipelines and any chemically stable substance can be sent through a pipeline. Pipelines exist for the transport of crude and refined petroleum‚ fuels - such as oil‚ natural gas and biofuels - and other fluids including sewage‚ slurry‚ water‚ and beer. Pneumatic tubes using compressed air can be used to transport solid capsules. What advantages and disadvantages pipelines have
