It will serve as a practical handbook for engineers, technicians and others involved in design and operation of pipelines transporting liquids. Currently, existing books on the subject are mathematically rigorous, theoretical and lack practical applications. Using this book, engineers can better understand and apply the principles of hydraulics to their daily work in the pipeline industry without resorting to complicated formulas and theorems. Numerous examples from the author’s real life experience are included to illustrate application of pipeline hydraulics.
