Took a college short course on pipeline hydraulics back in the 90s for work. The professor was Dr Wylie retired from U of Michigan who had written the textbook we used.

At the end of the course he had a slide show of pipeline incidents caused by over pressuring due to water hammer and other design flaws. Needless to say, the results were pretty catastrophic and even killed people in some cases.

Not something to mess around with.

Dr. Ben Wylie worked with Dr. Mike A. Stoner. They wrote the hydraulic modeling software, originally called Stoner Pipeline Simulator, I use professionally. It's arguably the industry standard for single phase fluid flow hydraulic modeling.
