Hydraulics of Pipelines

In Hydraulics of Pipelines, more than thirty state-of-the-art papers illustrate contemporary issues in the operation and design of water, sewer, gas, oil, and slurry pipelines and pipeline systems. In addition, pertinent case histories are presented on water and gas pipelines which outline solutions to particular problems.

Contributors cover a wide range of subjects, including friction factors and losses, control valve characteristics, computer modeling for design, construction techniques, slurry transportation, and system analysis. Flow capacity of rehabilitated sanitary sewers; selecting controls for water distribution systems; case studies of internal pipeline corrosion coatings; and slurry trenching for waterway pipeline installation are among the specific topics addressed.
