Hi,

I have to evaluate the wather hammer effect on a pipe of 2m of diameter on 600m. The fluid is wather.

I read on previous post that it's possible and that I have to make the density function of pressure. But, I have other questions:

  1. What type of mesh does I need to correctly simulate the phenomena?
  2. Is CFX able to considere cavitation in water hammer problem?
  3. To correctly simulate cavitation and water hammer problem, does I need a fine mesh?
  4. Is it preferable that I look for an other software like Autopipe or Ceasar II?
Thank you,

Michael Page, ing.
