Q. 1 The available head in the reservoir is 100m and length of the pipe is 200m. Assuming the bulk modulus of elasticity and the density of water the be 20*108 N/m² and 1000kg/m³ respectively, calculate the velocity of the pressure wave and plot the variation of pressure with time at one fourth of the length of the pipe from the reservoir end. Clearly indicate the magnitude of the water hammer pressure and the time intervals. Assume the pipe material to be rigid.

The available head in the reservoir is 100m and length
of the pipe is 200m. Assuming the bulk modulus of elasticity and
the density of water the be 20*108 N/m² and 1000kg/m³
respectively, calculate the velocity of the pressure wave and plot
the variation of pressure with time at one fourth of the length of
the pipe from the reservoir end. Clearly indicate the magnitude of
the water hammer pressure and the time intervals. Assume the
pipe material to be rigid.
