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 within the system. A single valve closure can generate multiple
