Computerized Hydraulic Ram: Fluid machinery lab equipment : Tourbo machinery lab equipment : The designed and developed experimental model It can be used to demonstrate the formation and effect of water hammer and to study how a hydraulic ram works. The water is fed to the ram via a long pipe at a gradient. Above certain water velocity the waste valve in the ram closes automatically, due to the flow forces. This happens suddenly, so that the kinetic energy of the water in the pipe is converted
