From the Author
Summary of Aims and Contents
The book is intended for the student seeking an introduction to the subject and the design engineer charged with the responsibility of ensuring that pipe systems are adequately designed and protected. It is laid out in three parts to meet the needs of readers with varying levels of prior knowledge. Part 1 is an introduction to the subject and describes various methods of transient control and suppression. Part 2 is for the more experienced user. It describes how to approach the task of assessing the extent to which systems may be at risk and utilises eight representative systems. A number of accidents and incidents are also discussed to illustrate how transient events can arise from some unexpected causes. Part 3 is a comprehensive data base containing a wealth of information in graphical and tabular format which will aid the design engineer in assessing pipe systems and enabling him/her to design appropriate protection. The book draws on the extensive research and consultancy experience of the author in this field.
