How do we calculate?

Wave speed a = √(K/ρ ÷ (1 + K·D/(E·e))). If the closing time is shorter than the critical time (2L/a), Joukowsky applies: Δp = ρ × a × Δv; if longer, the Michaud approximation: Δp = 2 × ρ × L × v ÷ t. K is the bulk modulus of water (2.2 GPa), E the modulus of elasticity of the pipe material.

Let us turn your calculation into a bill of materials

Send us the list from the calculator; we will quote flanges, elbows, tees, reducers, pipes and valves in a single offer, with EN 10204 3.1 material certificates.

This calculator is used in these sectors: Water treatment plants, Hydropower, Water transmission and irrigation. All calculators →
