The 300 times difference between "Velocity of flow" and "Velocity of pressure"

The information that you need, or equipment that you wish us to select for you, needs to reflect these differences.

See Liquid-Dynamics.com pulse signatures - the relationship between amplitudes and frequencies.

Flow Fluctuations, generally are only differences, at a maximum, from 0 to 15 ft/sec (4.5 ms).

Like saying a "6 minute mile" running speed. In other words, the velocity is so low there is plenty of time for flow to change direction, go up the branch of a "T", and come back into the system. Therefore, a single connection volume accumulator will normally be adequate. But where the frequency is high, so that the direction change repeats faster than 10 times per second, there will be so much energy loss from making the fast direction change a single connection will not work.

Where your concern is pressure pulsation we have to direct the pressure waves that are travelling at say 3500 mph, through a dampener. In the process flow fluctuation will also be addressed. The purpose is to intercept the pressure response from the piping system, to the forcing action from the pump.

To what extent this will be necessary is found by: See Different System Smoothness Requirements.
