DESCRIPTION:
A hands-on, applications-based approach to the design and analysis of commonly used centrifugal pumps Centrifugal Pump Design presents a clear, practical design procedure that is solidly based on theoretical fluid dynamics fundamentals, without requiring higher math beyond algebra. Intended for use on the factory floor, this book offers a short, easy-to-read description of the fluid mechanic phenomena that occur in pumps, including those revealed by the most recent research. The design procedure incorporates a simple computer program that allows
Other important features of this book include: * Up-to-date coverage of detailed design data * Guidance on selection, troubleshooting, and modification of existing pumps * A numerical example illustrating the design of a pump as readers move through the book * Manual calculations-including worked examples-and personal computer program listings critical to pump design * Ample references to all subjects for further study This unique handbook closes the gap between research and application and puts the fundamentals of advanced fluid mechanics where they will do the most good: in the hands of engineers, teach
JOHNTUZSON is a consultant who has a doctorate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and forty years of industrial experience in machine design. He is past chairman and pump symposium co-organizer of the Fluids Machinery Committee of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
"Deceptionated" according to Juan. I'm very deceptionated with this book.I must recognize that the general structure of the book is quite good, but the problem is not that.The problem with the book begins with the formulas. It has to much errors. Seems that the autor hasn't had the time for a technical review. Some of the formulas has several tipographic mistakes, and appear different on the computer program listings.I have invested some time reviewing the results of the prog. good book very concise, easy read and practical Best book I have seen for centrifugal pump design so far
