Does water hammer occur when two liquids meet?
Thread Content
Problem description: Two streams of water converge and are discharged into a pit at atmospheric pressure. One of the streams is at 100°C and under slight positive pressure, but it is pressurized by a pump; the other stream is at 150°C and under a pressure of 4 bar. Is the water hammer phenomenon at the junction caused by the high-temperature water flashing and carrying gas? But 100°C water is also a high temperature, right? Why water hammer?
It is mainly caused by rapid temperature changes, which lead to thermal expansion and contraction of the pipes
It is mainly caused by the temperature difference between the two media.
Are both from the submersed water inlet pit? ~~
After the intersection, a main pipe leads to the gutter
Can the drainage volume be controlled? Adjusting the drainage volume to 150 degrees will ensure that the entire available space is filled with liquid
It is caused by the temperature difference between the two media.
During the pressure release process with high-pressure water, water vapor will escape, so it’s normal for water hammer to occur.
Flash evaporation produces a small amount of steam, definitely water hammer
