Pressure pulsations in reciprocating pump piping systems Part 1: Modelling

Fluid Dynamics 2014-10-06 v1

Abstract

A distributed parameter model of pipeline transmission line behaviour is presented, based on a Galerkin method incorporating frequency-dependent friction. This is readily interfaced to an existing model of the pumping dynamics of a plunger pump to allow time-domain simulations of pipeline pressure pulsations in both suction and delivery lines. A new model for the pump inlet manifold is also proposed.
