Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
This chapter deals with the numerical results obtained from simulation of
fluid transients in viscoelastic pipes. For the non-cavitating flow case, the simulation
shows that the pressure fluctuations are rapidly attenuated, and the overall transient
pressure wave is delayed in time due to the retarded deformation of the pipe-wall. In
addition, the simulation of the cavitating flow gives reasonable results compared to
experimental data.
