Rupture of Flow Continuity at Hydraulic Impact in Pressure Systems from Polymer Pipes

In pressure systems made of polymeric materials, hydraulic impacts, accompanied by a decrease in pressure below atmospheric, can occur. The resulting discontinuity of the fluid flow leads to an increase in the negative consequences of water hammering. A set of measures to reduce the likelihood of a destructive non-stationary process increases the reliability and durability of the entire pressure system as a whole and each of its elements separately, is cost-effective, expedient, especially in comparison with the cost of measures to eliminate water hammering consequences. The article discusses a modern method for calculating the water hammering parameters. An assessment of the factors influencing the nature of the unsteady process and the magnitude of pressure during a hydraulic impact is made. The analysis of the main methods aimed at preventing and minimizing the negative consequences of water hammering is given. For an integrated approach to ensuring the reliability and stability of the pressure system in various conditions, it is required to calculate the water hammering possibility.
