What does "sequences" mean here?
Hydraulic rams utilizing the impulse of large masses of low-pressure water to drive much smaller masses of water (one half to one sixth of the driving water) through the delivery pipe to higher elevations, in synchronism with the pressure waves and sequences induced by water hammer.
PS:
A hydraulic ram, or hydram, is a cyclic water pump powered by hydropower. It takes in water at one "hydraulic head" (pressure) and flow rate, and outputs water at a higher hydraulic head and lower flow rate. The device uses the water hammer effect to develop pressure that allows a portion of the input water that powers the pump to be lifted to a point higher than where the water originally started. The hydraulic ram is sometimes used in remote areas, where there is both a source of low-head hydropower and a need for pumping water to a destination higher in elevation than the source. In this situation, the ram is often useful, since it requires no outside source of power other than the kinetic energy of flowing water.

I defer to someone who actually knows what they're talking about but I presume sequences here might be the regular/periodic effects of any kind (such as in the flow of water). d

meteorquakeI defer to someone who actually knows what they're talking about but I presume sequences here might be the regular/periodic effects of any kind (such as in the flow of water).dThanks a lot. I just presume that "sequences" perphaps means a series of things or effects after pressure wave which come in sequence. To this point, I can't agree with you a
