Excerpt from Hydraulics
Hydraulics is practical hydromechanics, that is, it is the study of the applications of hydromechanics to engineering problems.l While it might deal with any fluid it is generally restricted to liquids and especially to water.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. A concise text on the hydrodynamics of water, this book serves as a helpful guide for both students and practicing engineers seeking to apply fluid mechanics to practical problems. The author provides a clear exposition of fundamental principles. He explains the application of Bernoullis theorem as the key to rational treatment of the subject, ensuring that students understand that the famous speed-pressure equation only applies in special cases. Through a combination of rigorous mathematics and empirical formulas, and experimental coefficients, the author presents a more complete picture of fluid dynamics that is not solely reliant on pure reason or experimentation. This pragmatic approach enables readers to apply theory to any given water power plant, compute or estimate results for which satisfactory data is lacking, and apply experimental factors and empirical formulas with an understanding of their limitations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332318759_0
