Hydraulic jumps represent a critical phenomenon in open channel flows, occurring when rapidly moving water abruptly transitions from a high-velocity, shallow regime to a slower, deeper state. This ...

If one were to question the use of hydraulic chilled water system modeling to complete an engineering survey, I’d venture to guess most HVAC consulting engineers would not have used this unique, value ...

These graphs compare the pressure/flow characteristics of orifice and capillary restrictors. The characteristic impedance of an orifice restrictor does not vary linearly, so it will not always match ...

Flow reversal in piping systems can degrade equipment performance and cause significant water hammer, potentially resulting in catastrophic failure. Power plant condenser cooling water systems—or ...

Efficiency is a key design criteria for almost all components and systems on a piece of heavy-duty equipment—as well as for the machine itself. Hydraulics are one of the many areas in which ...
