University of Kentucky. ABSTRACT For most piping systems the maximum and minimum operating pressures occur during transient operations. Therefore it is essential to good design and operation to perform a transient analysis for normal startup and shutdown and for unplanned events such as a pump trip associated with a power outage. This author also claims that waterhammer (transient) analysis is easy. Hydraulic engineers who have studied the traditional approach to transient analysis might dispute this claim but, in fact, carrying out an analysis using the concept of pressure wave action provides an accurate, intuitive and simple method for transient pipe system analysis of simple or complex pipe systems. Not only is this approach simple it is extremely efficient producing accurate solutions with far fewer calculations making this approach suitable for analyzing large pipe distribution systems.. INTRODUCTION Waterhammer analysis has traditionally not received the attention it deserves in our engineering curriculums and the consideration it requires for safe and effective design and operation of piping systems. The principal reason for this situation is that transient analysis has been presented to engineer in a manner which is complex and difficult to apply to pipe system hydraulic design when, in fact, this topic can be presented in an intuitive and easily applied manner. In this paper an approach to transient flow analysis based on the action of pressure waves is presented. It is shown that this approach produces accurate solutions using far fewer calculations. In addition the approach provides the engineer an intuitive understanding of pipeline hydraulic transients which will result in improved designs and operations.
