| Learning Outcomes |
|---|
| On completion of the course, the student is expected to be able to do the following: 1. Name the basic knowledge concerning the installation, the operating principle and the choice of rotodynamic pumps in a hydraulic network; 2. Modeling a hydraulic network (friction and minor losses, elevation rise); 3. Use the coefficients of the valves; 4. Identify the type of waterhammer (mass or wave) present in pipes, evaluate the magnitudes of pressure variations and propose adequate means to mitigate the transient effects. |
| Content |
|---|
| - Hydraulic networks (friction and minor losses, altitude rise, pipes in parallel and / or in series), - Operating principle of rotodynamic pumps (generality, constitution, pump curves, pump coupling, operating point, specific speed, similarity, cavitation, adaptation of the operating point) ; - Control valve (types of valves, valve coefficients); - Transient phenomena in pipes (generalized equations of transient flows, waterhammers, means of protection). |
