Reseña del libro "3rd Edition Hydraulics (en Inglés)"
Hydraulics is an applied, engineering, science in so far as it emerged from demands of life and widely used in engineering. Hydraulics provides the methods of calculating and designing a wide range of hydraulic structures (dams, canals, weirs, pipelines), machinery(pumps, turbines, fluid couplings) and other devices used in many branches of engineering such as in machines-tool design, foundry practice, the manufacture of plastics, etc. Modern aircraft design, with its fluid drives, fuel and lubricating systems, hydraulic shock absorbers, etc., relay extensively on the science of hydraulics. The book comprises fourteen chapters covering: hydrostatics, hydraulic equations, flow through pipes, laminar and turbulent flows, flow through orifices, tubes and nozzles, centrifugal pumps, displacement pumps and hydraulic transmission.
