Hydraulic Engineering: Fundamental Concepts includes hydraulic processes with corresponding systems and devices. The hydraulic processes include the fundamentals of fluid mechanics and pressurized pipe flow systems. This book illustrates the use of appropriate pipeline networks, along with various devices like pumps, valves, and turbines. The knowledge of these processes and devices is extended to design, analysis, and implementation.
