This course teaches you all the fundamentals of performing pressure surge and water hammer analysis using BOSfluids.
Background knowledge about pressure surge analysis is provided as well as a detailed overview of the features and capabilities of the BOSfluids software. The complete workflow of performing a surge analysis is discussed; from performing a steady state analysis and simulating transient events to post-processing the simulation results and how to use the flow-induced loads to perform a structural analysis. Next to exercises using BOSfluids, additional real-life cases and their associated mitigation measures are discussed.
After this course, you will be a confident user of BOSfluids, that understands good design practices and analysis methods for performing pressure surge and water hammer analysis.
This course is available in multiple formats. For individual learning, you can choose to follow the course online at your own pace. For teams there are also instructor led training course options, which can either be followed online or through a 2-day classroom training course.
Self-Paced
