Water hammer phenomena takes place due to the pressure rise.
Closing the valve suddenly causes revers flow (reaction flow) may damage the pump or elbows if exist.

When the discharge valve is closed in the running condition of a pump then the friction between pump impeller and liquid generates heat which increases continue and hence the fluid gets vaporized which causes problems of cavitation.

Why do we use solid shafts for transfer of power in case of pumps/ turbines & other machines why we use a hollow shaft (pipe) in universal joints of automobiles; although the rated load and twist is approx. the same.

Arun Govind Neelan

• Feb 27th, 2012

In automobile application we have to consider weight in addition to torque and strength. Hollow shaft has high torque transmitting capacity per unit mass compared to solid shaft. If you consider bending stress diagram for hollow it is min at centre so material requirement is minimum at centre.

Akash, your FBD won’t work if you leave off external contacts – they need to be converted to force arrows. The buoyed object provides one such force: the buoyant reaction force.

You seem to agree that there is a force acting upwards on the test tube, appearing on the spring balance acting against the weight. As the test tube and the bowl of water are stationary, not accelerating, there must be an equivalent reaction force acting downwards on the body of water, imparted by the object. To go into more detail, the surface of the object experiences a pressure distribution from the water, gradated downwards due to increasing pressure within the water body. The net result from the pressure distribution is that the water pushes up on the object (buoyant force). To avoid being crushed, the object pushes back against this pressure in all directions – so again you get net a reaction force in the opposite direction, downwards.

So the FBD of the water body needs a reaction force to account for buoyancy. This reaction force acts downwards, from the centre of the displaced volume and is equal to the weight of the water displaced. The weight of the object immersed doesn’t need to be considered as this is supported but the weight of the displaced volume of water does.
