Program & Details

Water hammer due to Pump Trips and Switchover in a Process Plant

1. The pump trip scenario
2. Results upstream and downstream of the pump (amongst others: pressure fluctuations, flow, unbalanced loads)
3. The influence of pump moment of inertia and initial steady state flow
4. Pump curves
5. Cavitation downstream of the pump
6. System (pump) start-up scenarios
7. Good practices & pump properties
