Thorley (fluid engineering, emeritus, City University, UK) has added new material on wave speeds in plastically deforming tubes, air vessel design, four-quadrant head and torque characteristics for pumps, and air relief and vacuum-breaking valves to this second edition of a text/reference for graduate students in engineering who need insight on fluid transient phenomena. Basic concepts on fluid transients are explained, and practical methods for the control of transients are reviewed, employing only such theory as is necessary. Discussion of applications follows, with presentation of eight examples, a short outline of computer modeling, and a section on accidents and incidents. A reference section provides numerous charts, tables, and other data useful for transient assessments. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
