Hi,

We have a system where we have a pump going into about 100m of mining hose, and then into 3mm wall steel pipe system. about 400mm diameter.

The mining hose is not straight, the steel section is made of straights and 90 bends.

The pump may stop and start suddenly. Should we be concerned about water hammer, or will the mining hose dampen it out.

Does anyone know the modulus of elasticity for mining hose?
