A method and system for calculating an extension length of a main fracture in hydraulic fracturing, and a medium are provided. The method includes: acquiring a water hammer wave signal at a wellhead after pump shutdown during hydraulic fracturing; obtaining a time for a water hammer wave to travel from the wellhead to a bridge plug; calculating an average velocity of the water hammer wave moving in a well; performing a Fourier transform on a local signal with linear trend removed, to obtain a frequency spectrum of the local signal of the water hammer wave; extracting a fundamental frequency corresponding to a maximum value point in the frequency spectrum of the local signal of the water hammer wave as a response frequency in a main fracture; calculating a propagation time of the water hammer wave in the main fracture; and calculating an extension length of the main fracture.
