The book begins with an introduction to water treatment systems and hydraulics and explains the basic concepts of fluid properties, fluid statics, and fluid flow.
The authors cover fluid statics, elementary field dynamics (the Bernoulli equation), fluid kinematics, finite control volume analysis, differential analysis of fluid flow, similitude, dimensional analysis, modeling, viscous flow in pipes, flow over immersed bodies, open-channel flow, compressible flow, and turbomachines, with extensive appendices supporting the text review problems.
