The first of its kind, this modern, comprehensive text covers both ana lysis and design of piping systems. The authors begin with a review of basic hydraulic principles, with emphasis on their use in pumped pipe lines, manifolds, and the analysis and design of large pipe networks. After the reader obtains an understanding of how these principles are implemented in computer solutions for steady state problems, the focus then turns to unsteady hydraulics.
Offering a balanced treatment of both theory and practical design solutions, this book examines the fundamental concepts of engineering hydraulics. [NOTE; FROM PREV. ED. TOC] Fundamentals Properties of Water; Water Pressure and Pressure Forces; Water Flow in Pipes; Pipelines and Pipe Networks; Water Pumps; Water Flow in Open Channels; Ground Water Hydraulics; Hydraulic Structures; Water Measurements; Hydraulic Similitude and Model Studies; Hydrology for Design; Graphical Flow Nets: Electric Analog and Numerical Analysis; Solution Charts (Nomographs); Symbols. A very useful reference for practicing engineers who want to review basic principles and their applications in hydraulic engineering systems ***COURSE*** For one-semester undergraduate courses in Hydraulics.
