This book presents a discussion of problems facing design engineers, with reference to particular case histories. It will be of interest not only to designers and consultant engineers but also to students, for whom this approach represents the best method of training. There is a strong feeling in academic circles and among practicing engineers that university work should, in future, be more closely involved with actual engineering projects. To make the case-history analyzes understandable, the chapters on basic theories, graphical and computer methods have been developed to points at which they can be of immediate use.
The book is divided into three parts: Part A covers mass oscillations in surge systems; Part B deals with the theory of water hammer; and Part C considers engineering problems, case histories, and model and in situ tests, irrespective of whether they are on surges or on water hammer, and irrespective of the method—analytical, graphical or computing—used to solvfc them. Several methods often have to be used in parallel to analyze the diverse aspects of practical situations.
