Asli K.H., Aliyev S.A.O. Applied Research in Hydraulics and Heat Flow

CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, 2014. XXII, 353 p. — ISBN13: 978-1-4822-3096-3 (eBook - PDF).Applied Research in Hydraulics and Heat Flow covers modern subjects of mechanical engineering such as fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and flow control in complex systems as well as new aspects related to mechanical engineering education.The chapters help to enhance the understanding of both the fundamentals of mechanical engineering and their application to the solution of problems in modern industry.The book includes the most popular applications-oriented approach to engineering fluid mechanics and heat transfer. It offers a clear and practical presentation of all basic principles of fluid mechanics and heat transfer, tying theory directly to real devices and systems used in mechanical and chemical engineering. It presents new procedures for problem-solving and design, including measurement devices and computational fluid mechanics and heat transfer.This book is suitable for students, both in upper-level undergraduate and graduate mechanical engineering courses. The book also serves as a useful reference for academics, hydraulic engineers, and professionals in fields related to mechanical engineering who want to review basic principles and their applications in hydraulic engineering systems. This fundamental treatment of engineering hydraulics balances theory with practical design solutions to common engineering problems. The authors examine the most common topics in hydraulics, including hydrostatics, pipe flow, pipelines, pipe networks, pumps, hydraulic structures, water measurement devices, and hydraulic similitude and model studies.A glossary of terms, case studies, list of abbreviations, and recent references are included.List of Abbreviations
