Pile Technology Test Report: Flapper Nozzle Assembly

Description: The functional operation of the flapper nozzle was tested by charging slugs through it while water flow rates up to 48.4 gpm and inlet header pressures up to 400 psig. were maintained. Comparative damage to the slugs by the flapper nozzle and an H-type inlet nozzle was determined by charging slugs through the nozzles with a 105-D type air cylinder charging machine under conditions of no water flow or lubrication. The effect of the nozzle design on the inlet pressure fluctuations was determined … more
