Henry Liu

Opis

This overview responds to the lack of cohesive sources of information in the field by covering the essential aspects of pipeline engineering in a single volume. Part one delivers an integrated treatment of all variants of pipe flow, including incompressible and compressible flows; Newtonian and non-Newtonian flows; slurry, multiphase, and capsule flows; and pneumatic transport of solids. Part two summarizes the equipment and methods required for successful planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of pipelines. By addressing the fundamentals of pipeline engineering, this groundbreaking text provides engineers with the tools necessary for success in the field.

Recenzje

"Professor Henry Liu's book fills a void in our engineering education and practice. I could see this book being embraced by most professors, students, and practitioners for years to come because of the complete story it tells about pipeline engineering, using design computations, practice problems, and references in each of its chapters."

"I am much impressed with the excellent coverage of both theories and applications of pipeline engineering in Dr. Henry Liu's book. It is the best and the most important book on pipeline that engineers should read."
