Column separation refers to the breaking of liquid columns in fully filled pipelines. This may
occur in a water-hammer event when the pressure in a pipeline drops to the vapor pressure …

Cavitation is the transition from a liquid to a vapour phase, due to a drop in pressure to the
level of the vapour tension of the fluid. Two kinds of cavitation have been reviewed here …

This two-part paper investigates key parameters that may affect the pressurewaveform
predicted by the classical theory ofwater-hammer. Shortcomings in the prediction of …

Mixed flows in storm water systems (SWSs) generate a set of complex phenomena that are
difficult to capture in modeling. Shock-fitting and shock-capturing techniques are the two …

Temperature variations and their effects on the simulation of unsteady pipe flows, in the
presence of pressure-wave induced cavitation, were investigated with reference to high …

In this paper, an explicit finite volume Godunov-type scheme is applied for a two-phase
homogeneous water hammer flow model. The developed finite volume method is based on …

This paper focuses on the formulation and assessment of a second-order accurate finite
volume (FV) shock-capturing scheme for simulating one-and two-phase water hammer …

The research focuses on the analysis of transient cavitating flow in polyethylene pipes,
which are characterized by a viscoelastic–rheological behaviour. A hydraulic transient …

The current paper aims at the experimental and numerical analysis of the cavitating pipe
flow during the occurrence of hydraulic transients in a quasi-horizontal straight copper pipe …

The main aim of this thesis is to advance our understanding of the process of flood-wave
propagation through storm-sewer systems by improving the methods available for simulating …
