Excerpt from A Treatise on Hydraulics
As to what is special in the present treatise, the author thinks it important that the problems concerning the flow of incompressible fluids, and the closely related problems dealing with compressible fluids, should be treated together. The practical importance of the latter class of problems has increased considerably in recent years.
To most of the chapters numerical examples have been added, selected from those which the author has set for his students during many years past.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book is an exhaustive examination of hydraulics, a crucial aspect of practical engineering. Having first developed through the work of visionaries during the 17th century, hydraulics has become an essential element in the design of water infrastructure like turbines and pumps, as well as water measurement, storage, and flow. The author draws upon their significant practical experience to present a blend of theoretical principles with practical case studies and empirical data. Crucially, they show how hydraulics interrelates with fluid dynamics, and how an understanding of both is necessary for engineers to solve real-world problems. This book provides students, researchers, and practicing engineers with a comprehensive resource on hydraulics, guiding them to make informed judgments when designing systems and solving complex problems.
