Water hammer analysis using an implicit finite-difference method [PDF]
Ingeniare. Revista chilena de ingeniería, 2018 ABSTRACT The Implicit Finite-Difference Method (IFDM) for the solution of water hammer in pipe networks is presented. All the equations necessary to calculate the flow and pressure in each node of the network are shown in detail. Section-by-section coupling through the Karney equation allows obtain a system of equations for each pipe section which is ...

Chebyshev super spectral viscosity method for water hammer analysis
Propulsion and Power Research, 2013 AbstractIn this paper, a new fast and efficient algorithm, Chebyshev super spectral viscosity (SSV) method, is introduced to solve the water hammer equations. Compared with standard spectral method, the method's advantage essentially consists in adding a super spectral viscosity to the equations for the high wave numbers of the numerical solution.
