Summary

A working tool for the professional engineer, this book supplies a practical, comprehensive manual on the hydraulic analysis of piping systems. The coverage investigates virtually all pipe flow configurations, and includes up-to-date loss coefficients for various pipe joints, enabling users to achieve more energy efficient system designs. Experimental test data and formulas for loss coefficients from worldwide sources are evaluated, integrated, and developed into widely applicable equations arranged in straightforward tables and diagrams. The book also presents the processes used to select and develop loss coefficient data for the various configurations.
