Popis: An investigation has been made of the pressure attenuation that can be obtained through the application of a rigid tapered section located immediately upstream of a quick-closing valve or other surge-generating device. The model taken was that of an inviscid liquid flowing through the rigid tapered tube terminated by either a very long uniform line or a finite-length line and reservoir. This paper presents an outline of a theoretical method for solving the given problem, along with some practical solutions. A description and the results of experimental work performed to substantiate the theory are also included.
