The first of its kind, this modern, comprehensive text covers both analysis and design of piping systems. The authors begin with a review of basic hydraulic principles, with emphasis on their use in pumped pipelines, manifolds, and the analysis and design of large pipe networks. After the reader obtains an understanding of how these principles are implemented in computer solutions for steady state problems, the focus then turns to unsteady hydraulics. These are covered at three levels:

4.0 out of 5 stars
Good news for the gas engineer,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hydraulics of Pipeline Systems (Hardcover)
This books cover all the aspect of designing a utility network analysis from basic to the implementation aspects. Besides that, the software included are very useful and it can be applied to any network. I still have to say that this is the wonderful book and i recommend to all of you!!
