Chapter 3 derives the governing equations describing the motion of water. It uses the concept of impulse-momentum to calculate hydrodynamic forces. We examine the forces from water jets in Section 3.1 and forces in pipes in Section 3.2 prior to a review of flow measurement techniques in Section 3.3.
Chapter 11 broaches the advanced topic of unsteady flow in open channels. The governing equation for floodwave propagation is derived in Section 11.1 with solutions to the advection-diffusion equation in Section 11.2.
Chapter 4 guides the design of pumping systems. Pumps move water through pipes systems. Chapter 4 discusses pump types in Section 4.1, pump performance in Section 4.2 and cavitation in Section 4.3.
Chapter 16 covers essential knowledge of groundwater. This chapter reviews groundwater flows in terms of permeability in Section 16.1, steady flow in Section 16.2 and unsteady groundwater flow in Section 16.3.
