12 bar from stopping one metre per second
The head at the valve after it shuts, computed by the method of characteristics on a 600 m pipe. The rise is 122.4 m of water, which is ρaΔV/ρg to 1.4e-14 m — and the scheme was told neither ρaΔV nor anything else about the answer. The wave then runs to the reservoir and back every 2.000 s, and with no friction in the model it never decays: a real pipe damps this out in a few tens of cycles.
6 essays call
surge. The drawing above is what it returns with no arguments at all; every
call below passes it something, because a placement that passes nothing draws whichever member
of the family the generator happens to default to rather than the one its essay argues about.
It is also the blast radius. Changing surge changes every figure listed here
at once, and on this site it may change what they assert as well as what they show —
which is what has to be rebuilt and looked at before the change is believed.
Where it is called
What each of these essays asks for instead of the defaults is on the regime index, which reads the parameters back out of the finished figures rather than out of the placements.
