2D CFD Modeling of Rapid Water Filling with Air Valves Using OpenFOAM
(2021-11-04)
The rapid filling process in pressurized pipelines has been extensively studied using mathematical models. On the other hand, the application of computational fluid dynamics models has emerged during the last decade, which ...
Experimental and numerical analysis of a water emptying pipeline using different air valves
(MDPI AG, 2017)
The emptying procedure is a common operation that engineers have to face in pipelines. This generates subatmospheric pressure caused by the expansion of air pockets, which can produce the collapse of the system depending ...
Effect of a commercial air valve on the rapid filling of a single pipeline: A numerical and experimental analysis
(MDPI AG, 2019)
The filling process in water pipelines produces pressure surges caused by the compression of air pockets. In this sense, air valves should be appropriately designed to expel sufficient air to avoid pipeline failure. Recent ...
Transient phenomena during the emptying process of a single pipe with water–air interaction
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2019)
Emptying pipelines can be critical in many water distribution networks because subatmospheric pressure troughs could cause considerable damage to the system due to the expansion of entrapped air. Researchers have given ...
