Synopsis

Solve common hydraulic problems at a glance with a practical, diagram‑driven toolkit. This edition helps the practicing engineer quickly find accurate results for flows in pipes, channels, sewers, weirs, and fire streams using clear diagrams built on trusted formulas.


Designed to minimize calculation, the book uses slide rules and graph sections to read discharge, velocity, and head directly from diagrams. It emphasizes usable accuracy for everyday projects, acknowledges real‑world variation in pipe sizes and surfaces, and shows how to pair diagrams with standard data for fast, field‑ready results.



  • Step‑by‑step explanation of how to apply the Chezy and related formulas through diagrams

  • Diagrams for flow in small pipes, long pipes, channels, and sewer networks

  • Practical guidance on reading head losses, friction, and discharge from visuals

  • Special sections on fire‑streams, nozzles, pumps, and miscellaneous hydraulic diagrams


Ideal for engineers solving everyday hydraulic questions in the field or office, using a trusted diagrammatic approach.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
