This book, devoted to unsteady fluid flow, presents methods for solving a broad range of fluid-transient and periodic-flow problems. Emphasis is placed upon numerical methods for computer solution of practical problems. The graphical method of solution also is included and its use for simple problems is often desirable.
The characteristics-method solution is used almost exclusively for true transient problems, while linear methods utilizing sine wave solutions are used for oscillatory problems. Procedures for analysis of engineering systems receive primary attention. The objective of designers of fluid systems is to avoid undesirable transients or, at least, to design a system that will operate without an adverse influence from transients. Thus various means of control of unsteady conditions are discussed. Under the general heading of valve stroking, developments are presented in the concepts of design of systems to both reduce transient fluctuations and to improve their operating characteristics.
Examples and problems are included where appropriate to aid the reader in gaining a working knowledge of the material. Computer programs in FORTRAN are presented to illustrate the use of the methods in particular situations.
