-AFT/IMPULSE-
Waterhammer Analysis
    AFT/IMPULSE is a Windows application to help analysing waterhammer and surge transients in piping systems. The problems occur with valve closure/openings, pump startups/shutdowns and relief valve cracking. AFT/IMPULSE determines the surge pressure in each pipe and vapor capacity collapse risks.
