Proceedings of the Second U.S. WATER JET CONFERENCE May 24-26, 1983 Rolla, Missouri Edited by: David A. Summers and Frank F. Haston Sponsored by School of Mines & Metallurgy, University of Missouri-Rolla Published by: University of Missouri-Rolla, Rolla, Missouri 65401 The University of Missouri-Rolla has granted the WaterJet Technology Association the right to reprint, on the Association's web site, the Proceedings of the Second U.S. Water Jet Conference held in 1983 at the University of Missouri-Rolla. Please Note. This text is a scanned in version of the original. Because of some limitations in our programming the original pagination has been changed. Other than that we have tried to make the text a little more readable by increasing the spacing between paragraphs, but the text itself has been (subject to possible OCR misinterpretations) left as written. 2nd U.

DIMENSIONLESS PIPE LENGTH ANALYSIS FOR JET MODULATION SYSTEMS J. L. Evers, D. L. Eddingfield and J. Y. Yuh College of Engineering and Technology Southern Illinois University at Carbondale Carbondale, Illinois 62901 ABSTRACT A dimensionless pipe length analysis has been developed to summarize the possible responses of a modulator system for any combination of pipe lengths. The parametric summary has as many variables as pipes in the modulator system. The transfer matrix method with pipe friction neglected is used for the response equations. The results are
