Abstract
Under adiabatic conditions, and neglecting temperature variations due to entropy production, we present a set of Reynolds Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations for fluids of low compressibility, i.e., fluids in the liquid state. In the low Mach number limit, we specialize the RANS equations to the one-dimensional unsteady pipe flow, and we deduce the dimensionless number that plays a predominant role in the flow behavior. We reduce the system of equations to a linear damped wave equation, and use its analytical solution to investigate the propagation of large amplitude pressure waves in liquid-filled pipes (water hammer phenomenon). We test the model reliability by comparing the analytical solution of the proposed model against experimental data available in the literature.
期刊介绍：
Meccanica focuses on the methodological framework shared by mechanical scientists when addressing theoretical or applied problems. Original papers address various aspects of mechanical and mathematical modeling, of solution, as well as of analysis of system behavior. The journal explores fundamental and applications issues in established areas of mechanics research as well as in emerging fields; contemporary research on general mechanics, solid and structural mechanics, fluid mechanics, and mechanics of machines; interdisciplinary fields between mechanics and other mathematical and engineering sciences; interaction of mechanics with dynamical systems, advanced materials, control and computation; electromechanics; biomechanics.
Articles include full length papers; topical overviews; brief notes; discussions and comments on published papers; book reviews; and an international calendar of conferences.
Meccanica, the official journal of the Italian Association of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, was established in 1966.
