An updated book of the Wallingford design charts, used to obtain a direct solution to problems of fluid resistance. This covers all new developments in pipe manufacturing processes, jointing procedures and new materials.

This new edition again includes the extended range of pipe size that covers European standards as well as those for the newer materials now widely adopted in the UK. The book's main objective is to aid Colebrook-White assessments of resistance in such pipes and in a great variety of free-surface circumstances including large rivers.

The aim of these tables is to overcome limitations in the existing Hydraulics Research "Tables for the Hydraulic Design of Pipes and Sewers". The current edition of the tables is limited to pipe diameters of two metres and to a couple of pipe shapes. The additional tables which are designed to be used in conjunction with the existing 5th edition of "Tables for the Hydraulic Design of Pipes and Sewers" would extend the diameter to 20m. New interpolation procedures for part-full pipes and pipes of other cross-sectional shapes, other than circular and one particular form of egg-shape can be determined.

Covering conduit and channel shapes by tables of properties based on unit size, this work also includes detailed coverage of the possible effects of variation in water temperature within the normal water resources, as well as considering the treatment of part-full flow in circular pipes.

The handbook has been composed on the basis of processing, systematization and classification of the results of a great number of investigations published at different time. The essential part of the book is the outcome of investigations carried out by the author. The present edition of this handbook should assist in increasing the quality and efficiency of the design and usage of indutrial power engineering and other constructions and also of the devices and apparatus through which liquids and gases move.
