Water and Wastewater Engineering Hydraulics by Tj Casey

This book focuses on those aspects of fluid mechanics and hydraulics of particular relevance to water supply and wastewater disposal engineering. It presents an integrated treatment of these topics with an emphasis on application rather than mathematical rigour. The topics covered include steady uniform flow in pipes and channels, flow in pipe manifolds and networks, gradually varied flow, flow measurement structures, unsteady flow in pipes and channels, waterhammer control, and hydraulics of pumping systems. The analytical approach adopted in the book is orientated towards problem solution by microcomputer. The text includes 18 computer programs written in BASIC. This suite of programs constitutes a powerful analytical toolbox for the student and design engineer alike, giving access to the solution to a wide range of computationally tedious or complex hydraulic problems. The coding and program logic follow the analytical treatment in the text and each program is illustrated by a sample program run. Readers should have little difficulty in following the program logic and adapting the programs to suit specific needs. The book should be of special interest to students of water and wastewater engineering and professional engineers working in this field. The BASIC computer programs are listed in the appendices on a disk which accompanies the book.
