Desenvolvimento de um modelo computacional para determinação de diâmetro e classe de pressão em pequenas adutoras através do golpe de aríete

Abstract

In this work a computational model in a spread sheet of the Excel is presented, that it aims at to contribute with the projects of small pipelines, using itself of transient - the Water Hammer in condition of fast closing, as supporting in the definition of the diameters and class of pressures, and with this, to offer an alternative simplified for reduction of the costs of the tube, without disdaining the equations normally used in the process of measurements of pipelines. This tool will facilitate the interpretation of the generated data, allowing the technician to defme lengths of stretches of pipeline with its respective diameters and class of pressure, minimizing the costs of the tubing of small pipelines systems. The model presented significant economy in the studied example, being able to be object of future improvements.
