Knowledge Of Pipeline Hydraulics PDF Download

Pipeline systems range from very simple ones to very large and quite complex ones. They may be as uncomplicated as a single pipe conveying water from one reservoir to another or they may be as elaborate as an interconnected set of water distribution networks for a major metropolitan area. Individual pipelines may contain any of several kinds of pumps at one end or an interior point; they may deliver water to or from storage tanks. So how do these systems work? What principles are involved, and how are the systems successfully analyzed and understood? You can find the answers in this book. By reading it you will be able to solve problems relating to flow through pipelines, flow between reservoirs, and the estimation of pipe friction factors. This guide will give you the basic theory and illustrate it through worked examples. You can then further cement that understanding by working through a series of self-study questions. By the end, you can apply the Continuity equation, Energy / Bernoulli equation, and the equations for estimating energy loss such as Darcy-Weisbach and Colebrook-White equations to solve a wide variety of engineering problems.
