Why is this article in the firefighting category? --Andrew 20:04, Feb 7, 2005 (UTC)

I'm not sure... perhaps it has some relevance to fluid flow in fire hoses and fire sprinkler systems? -- FP 12:22, Feb 26, 2005 (UTC)

I'll take it out. --Andrew 08:37, Feb 27, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Other source of water hammer.

I'm not sure where to write it in, but water hammer also happens when heaving long pipes that are full of water. When this happens, there is a brief production of water vapour in a partial vacuum before the hammer. Colinvincent 06:33, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
