3.a. A steel penstock 60 cm in diameter has a shell thickness of 1.2 m. The pipe is required to design to convey a discharge with the mean velocity of 2.1 m/sec. Determine the water hammer head, pressure rise due to sudden closure of the valve by using i. Rigid water Column Theory ii. Elastic Water column theory. Take K = 2.1 * 10°N/mm2 and E = 2.1 * 10°N/mm2.
