This classic handbook is, now more than
ever, an indispensable reference for every engineer who wants to save time and
effort making accurate hydraulics computations.
The Handbook of Hydraulics is your
one-stop answer guide to hydraulics engineering and design.
The authors have revised
and updated this unmatched advisor--converting all constants to metric
units--to give you powerful solutions governing:
- viscosity
- surface tension, and elasticity
- fluid pressures and hydraulic forces
- laminar, turbulent, steady, and unsteady
flows
- oscillatory, breaking, and wind-generated
waves plus shore erosion control' flow through orifice gates, tubes,
weirs, and pipes;
- uniform and non-uniform flow in open
channels
- high-velocity transitions through
straight-walled, enlargement, and curved-wall constrictions
- unsteady open channel and spatially variable
flow
- flow measurement with meters, pilot tubes,
venture flumes, and other devices
- computer-based numerical methods
- much more

Continuing its tradition of excellence as
the standard reference on hydraulics for more than 75 years, this
seminal work has been thoroughly revised and updated to help practicing
engineers solve hydraulic engineering problems well into the next
century.
Packed with current and dependable data,
tables, formulas, and other crucial information that generations of
professionals have come to rely on, the Seventh Edition contains many
valuable new features, including: An extensive listing of computer
software programs--over 150 in all--to help speed computations,
analyses, and solutions of modern hydraulic engineering problems.
Included is a description of each
program's capabilities, availability, and cost.
General discussion of the ways in which
computer technology is playing an increasingly important role in solving
problems related to unsteady flow in:
open channels and conduits -
pipe networks - spillways - sediment
transport - shallow surface water - water quality - reservoir dynamics -
hydrodynamic transport in rivers - coastal hydraulics - flow through
porous media - hydraulic turbine units and draft tubes - and
much more
Conversion to metric units throughout. . .many
updated numerical examples showing applications to real-world problems. . .and
a wealth of key analytical background material.
