| Abstract: | The strong analogies between electrical and fluid system can be used to effect in modeling behaviour under pulsating flow conditions. This paper discusses the model of a simple pipe network experiencing pulsating flow as a result of valve movement. Experimental results are presented, indicating that care needs to be taken in modeling the valve behaviour as analogous to thermionic valve. One of the major problems in modeling fluid networks of this type is the lack of information regarding the characteristics of active components such as the valve. Developments in the field of Electro-magnetic and Ultrasonic flow measurement are helping to improve this situation. |
