About this document
Water Hammer Velocities in Pipe Materials by SERGIO CICCHITTI is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The paper analyzes water hammer wave velocities in different pipe materials, including High-Density Poly Ethylene (HDPE), Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), Ductile Cast Iron (DCI), and steel. It highlights how the elastic properties of these materials and factors like temperature and pipe thickness influence wave velocity calculations. The study concludes that wave velocities vary significantly among materials, with HDPE ranging from 200-360 m/s and steel from 950-1360 m/s.
