دانلود کتاب Gravity-Driven Water Flow in Networks

Gravity-driven water flow networks are a crucial method of delivering clean water to millions of people worldwide, and an essential agricultural tool. This book provides an all-encompassing guide to designing these water networks, combining theory and case studies. It includes design formulas for water flow in single or multiple, uniform or non-uniform diameter pipe networks; case studies on how systems are built, used, and maintained; comprehensive coverage of pipe materials, pressure ratings, and dimensions; and over 100 illustrations and tables. It is a key resource both for working engineers and engineering students and instructors.Content: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–26): Chapter 2 The Fundamental Principles (pages 27–74): Chapter 3 Pipe Materials and Dimensions (pages 75–92): Chapter 4 Classes of Pipe Flow Problems and Solutions (pages 93–106): Chapter 5 Minor?Lossless Flow in a Single?Pipe Network (pages 107–136): Chapter 6 “Natural Diameter” For a Pipe: Local Static Pressure (pages 137–150): Chapter 7 The Effects of Minor Losses (pages 151–157): Chapter 8 Examples for a Single?Pipe Network (pages 159–186): Chapter 9 The Energy Equation Based on Approximate Friction Factor (pages 187–200): Chapter 10 Optimization (pages 201–218): Chapter 11 Multiple?Pipe Networks (pages 219–313): Chapter 12 Microhydroelectric Power Generation (pages 315–340): Chapter 13 Network Design (pages 341–370): Chapter 14 Air Pockets in the Network (pages 371–386): Chapter 15 Case Study (pages 387–424): Chapter 16 Exercises (pages 425–489):
