In Almost All Technical Institutions Of Learning, The Laboratory Work In Any Subject Runs Concurrently With The Course In Theory Of The Subject. Consequently, The Students Perform The Laboratory Work Mechanically Without Intellectual Involvement In The Work. It Is, Therefore, Necessary That The Students, Before Conducting The Experimental Work, Are Familiarized With Elementary Theoretical And Other Aspects Relevant To The Experimental Work. This Book Is An Attempt To Serve This Objective For The Subject Of Hydraulic Engineering.The Contents Of The Book Include Description Of Basic Facilities In Hydraulic Engineering Laboratory, Elementary Terms Of Fluid Mechanics, Fundamental Equations Governing The Fluid Motion, Introduction To Open Channel Flow, A Note On Writing Laboratory Reports, And Instructional Description Of Several Experiments Including Those On Basic Hydraulic Engineering (Or Fluid Mechanics), Pipe Flow, Open Channel Flow, Boundary Layers, And Hydraulic Structures.Instructional Description Of Each Experiment Includes The Object (S), Brief Theoretical Background, Description Of One Typical Set-Up For The Experiment, Procedure For Conducting The Experiment And Carrying Out Computations. The Required Graph Sheets Have Also Been Provided In Order To Make The Book Self-Contained.

ISBN: 9781604271379

This laboratory manual is comprised of 14 laboratory experiments, covering topics of water quality, water treatment, groundwater hydrology, liquid static force, pipe flow, and open channel flow. These experiments are organized with a very logical flow to cover the related topics of environmental and hydraulics engineering within university-level courses. This state-of-the-art manual is divided into two sections--environmental engineering experiments and hydraulic engineering experiments--with seven experiments for each section. It provides the basic hands-on training for junior-year civil and environmental engineering students. In each experiment, fundamental theories in the topic area are revisited and mathematic equations are presented to guide practical applications of these theories. Tables, figures, graphs, and schematic illustrations are incorporated into the context to give a better understanding of concept development, experimental design, and data collection and recording. Each experiment ends with discussion topics and questions to help students better understand the content of the experiment. This manual mainly serves as a textbook for an environmental and hydraulics engineering laboratory course. Professionals and water/wastewater treatment plant managers may also find this manual of value for their daily jobs. In addition, students in related areas can use this manual as a reference and the general public may use it to educate themselves on water quality testing and water flow.

Genre: Science
ISBN: 1351658034

This is the second volume of a two-volume guide to designing, conducting and interpreting laboratory and field experiments in a broad range of topics associated with hydraulic engineering. Specific guidance is provided on methods and instruments currently used in experimental hydraulics, with emphasis on new and emerging measurement technologies and methods of analysis. Additionally, this book offers a concise outline of essential background theory, underscoring the intrinsic connection between theory and experiments. This book is much needed, as experimental hydraulicians have had to refer to guidance scattered in scientific papers or specialized monographs on essential aspects of laboratory and fieldwork practice. The book is the result of the first substantial effort in the community of hydraulic engineering to describe in one place all the components of experimental hydraulics. Included is the work of a team of more than 45 professional experimentalists, who explore innovative approaches to the vast array of experiments of differing complexity encountered by today’s hydraulic engineer, from laboratory to field, from simple but well-conceived to complex and well-instrumented. The style of this book is intentionally succinct, making frequent use of convenient summaries, tables and examples to present information. All researchers, practitioners, and students conducting or evaluating experiments in hydraulics will find this book useful.

The aim of this book is to enable the students to verify the principles studied in theory by conducting experiments. The book is designed for the undergraduate students of Civil Engineering. This book contains 17 experiments selected from the prescribed syllabi of Hydraulic Engineering and Fluid Mechanics of several universities and institutes. The first part of the book allows the students to review the fundamental theory before stepping into the laboratory environment. The second part provides the step-wise details of each experiment. Appendix A gives various questions based on each experiment to test the student’s understanding of the learned material. Appendix B gives data on physical properties of water, air and some commonly used fluids in the laboratory, and also lists the average values of Manning’s coefficient to be used in various experiments.
