In order to develop the water hammering cleaner system for removing scale and slime in inner metal or non-metal piping wall, the flow characteristics are investigated by numerical and experimental methods. The air bubbles in the piping systems as a shock wave are formed and transferred with the water flow in the piping. The governing equations are derived from making using of three-dimensional Wavier-Stokes equations with the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and SIMPLE algorithm. Pressure distributions in the pipeline are calculated for different air supply pressures. Also, we prepared some experimental results of the pressure differences for various air supply times.

Usual LEO satellite for earth observation use a blowdown hydrazine monopropellant propulsion system for attitude hold and orbit maintenance. For precision control, thruster valve has very short closing time, but this can cause water hammering and pressure surge. Since water hammering and pressure surge can cause damage of propulsion system and ununiform thrust, Thruster valve closing is one of the special concern during satellite propulsion system design. In this paper, an analysis for propellant feed system is conducted using the method of characteristics. The results represent water hammer effect is negligible even at the worst case and pressure surge can be decreased effectively with a trim orifice.

This paper addresses characteristics of compressible flow dynamics inside a pipe with an accumulator and an inlet orifice. It also presents a simple but stable numerical method associated with the accumulator-orifice calculation. In particular, a focus is given to developing a method of finding an optimum design of the accumulator-orifice system (i.e., the accumulator size and the throttle resistance) that gives the most effective dissipation of the water-hammering problem. It is found that there exists indeed an optimum set of parameter values for the most effective dissipation of the wave energy.

In this study, the effect of design factors in a pump station on the pressure variations which are the main cause of water hammering has been investigated by numerical simulations. As design factors, the flow rate, Young's modulus, diameter, thickness, roughness coefficient of pipeline are considered. The relationships between the pressure variations and the design factors are analyzed. The results show that the pressure variation increases sensitively with the flow rate and Young's modulus, and increases gradually with the thickness and roughness coefficient of pipe, whereas it decreases with the pipe diameter. The wavelength of the pressure wave becomes longer for a smaller Young's modulus, a smaller pipe thickness and a bigger pipe diameter. These relationships are nondimensionalized, and logarithmic curve-fitted functions are proposed by regression analysis. Most effective factors on the nondimensional pressure variation is Young's modulus. Flow rate, roughness coefficient, relative thickness and pipe diameters are the next impact factors.

의낙차수력발전소의 속도조정문제는 많은 연구대상을 갖고 있다. 이에 관계되는 문제는 수압변동에 따르는 수추작용현상(water hammering)이며 이의 시간특성의 치가 비교적 크다. 물론 속도조정문제를 위하여 단위실성정수가 수추작용의 시간특성 .theta.보다 큰 발전기를 사용하면 되나, 비용이 고가로 될 것이므로 개량된 조정기를 사용해서 해석코자 하고 있다.

Water hammering in nuclear or thermal power plant condenser cooling water systems in mathematically modeled and numerically analyzed based on the method of characteristics. Effects of variations of the discharge valve operating condition and the system geometry on the hydraulic transients are investigated for the cases when all or one of four pumps are tripped accidently due to loss of offisite power. Effects of ocean waves and tides on the steady-state and the transient operations are also studied. Water column separation in taken into account whenever necessary by means of a simplified physical model.

Iron artifacts from Busǒ Sansǒng inffered to late Baikjae periodwere studied on the aspects of metallugy. These materials were the largest size ever since excavated. From the analytical results these artifacts were found to be pureiron system without impurities or hypo-eutectoid steel system in below 0.3% in carbon contents. From the content of phosphorus in the range of 0.03∼0.05% as aim purity it was shown that charcoal were used for making these iron artifacts from sponge iron not fusion method. By observing metallugical structure it was found that iron artifacts was manufactured by repetitive folding and hammering forging method and some by heating method for adding carbon with cool water. This method were to improve the quality of the soften steel to harden one. In addition to those above repetitive hammering method eliminated the nonferrous materials such as slag inclusion and remained relatively pure ferrite.

A numerical study has been conducted to characterize the transient pressure in a simple water supply pipe system with an air chamber by utilizing a commercial code that employs the method of characteristics. Some results produced for validation in the study agree quite well with the previously reported. Several parameters are than varied. Among them are the valve closure time, the wave speed, the static pressure, the polytropic exponent, the air chamber volume, the diameter and the shape of orifice in the air chamber, etc, while the water temperature and velocity are kept constant at $20^\circ{C}$ and 0.8m/s, respectively. Results reported in this parametric study may be useful to understand the unsteady behavior of the system.

Hydraulic Transients would be occurred since pressure is increased or decreased when water speed inside of pipeline is rapidly changed A study on water hammer has become more important because the pumping stations were big and the systems conveying the fluid through the large and long transmission pipelines were complex. In this study, the method of characteristic line was adopted to evaluate the valve-induced water hammer phenomena in a pumps feedwater system.
