Gas Pipeline Hydraulics

This practical handbook explains how to understand and apply fluid mechanics principles when working in the gas pipeline transmission and distribution industry, without resorting to complicated formulas and theorems. This simplified approach enables quick understanding of the concepts. It also offers a practical way to apply the engineering principles in solving day-to-day problems encountered in transmission and distribution. The author uses real life experience to illustrate application of engineering principles and provides in-depth discussion on topics such as design and operation of gas pipelines, pressure drop formulas, and economic analysis of gas pipeline transportation.
