Abstract
A multiple scales asymptotic analysis is developed to describe the attenuation of a water hammer pressure wave initiated by a time-varying valve closure. The analytical results expose a simple rule-of-thumb relationship between water hammer pressure wave attenuation and the periodic average of the absolute flow velocity that is predicted by a quasi-steady friction model. The effect of flow reversals on the pressure wave attenuation is examined through comparison with a similar method applied to the water hammer generated during flow establishment, wherein flow reversals do not occur and there is a nonzero net flow. Although the analytical description is based on the assumption that the water hammer is generated by a sudden valve closure, its practical usefulness is extended by using the numerical solution as a guide to demonstrate its validity for a range of valve closure durations. A qualitative upper limit on closure times to which the analytic results may be applied is also found. All results are numerically verified using the method of characteristics.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
