Synopsis

Excerpt from An Experimental Study of the Resistances to the Flow of Water in Pipes: Thesis Presented to the University Faculty of Cornell University for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy

As graduate students in Cornell University, the writers had been associated in experimental hydraulics for a year and a half before the investigations to be described were begun. During that time they had experienced a number of surprises in an investigation on the effect of curvature on the flow of water in pipes,* and the necessity of refraining from jumping at conclusions, with little or no experimental evidence, had impressed them more and more as the work advanced.
