Hydraulic Motors - With Related Subjects, Including Centrifugal Pumps, Pipes, and Open Channels, Designed as a Textbook for Engineering Schools #231554

In the preparation of the following pages, as forming a text-book on this important branch of hydraulics for the use of students of engi neering, it has been borne in mind that to facilitate the acquirement of clear and sound ideas on the mechanics of the subject is the first essential of such a book; and, as greatly assisting to this end, ample numerical illustration has been provided in direct connection with the necessary algebraic treatment. At the same time, it is believed that sufficient descriptive matter has been introduced, relating to both past and present construction and design, to make the treatment a fairly practical one for its purpose, when regard is had to the limited time available for this subject in the ordinary course of study at an engi neering school.
