Question: A cast iron pipe with 2 0 - c m diameter and 1 5 - m m wall thickness is carrying water when the outlet

A cast iron pipe with 20-cm diameter and 15-mm wall thickness is carrying water when the outlet is suddenly closed. Use Ewater=2.17109Nm2 and EP=161011Nm. If the design discharge is 40ls, calculate the water hammer pressure rise for:
(a) rigid pipe walls;
(b) consider stretching of pipe walls, neglecting the longitudinal stress;
(c) pipeline that is anchored at upstream end only.
