Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Works and Pipe Distribution The force of gravity acting with an ample reservoir differs from pump pressure for forcing water through pipes, in the important respect that it is always ready for instant use without notification by means of electric wires, tele phones, etc., and is not liable to break down or get out of order like pumps or other direct pressure appliances. It, moreover, exerts, at all times, a steady pressure on the pipe system, reducing the liability of breakage to a mini mum. A gravity system has a decided advantage over a direct pressure pumping system in that (if pipes are of proper size) the full volume of flow is instantly available without waiting to fire up extra steam boilers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conveyance and Distribution of Water for Water Supply: Aqueducts, Pipe-Lines and Distributing Systems, a Practical Treatise for Water-Works Engineers and Superintendents During the past fifty years, great progress has been made in the construction and operation of water works. Large aqueducts and reservoirs have been built, the efficiency of pumping engines has been improved, and the purification of water has been greatly advanced. A number of good treatises on water supply have been published during recent years, but as they all endeavor to cover the whole sub jcet, they necessarily fail to discuss some parts in sufficient detail to be of practical value to the waterworks engineer and superintendent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collection of Reports, (Condensed), And Opinions of Chemists in Regard to the Use of Lead Pipe for Service Pipe, in the Distribution of Water for the Supply of Cities The chemical investigations instituted at different times by the authorities in charge of, or connected with the water supply of various large cities, have generally led these authorities to conclusions calca lated to quiet the public mind upon the question of danger from the use of lead pipes, without entirely satisfying it. Some of the citizens of Brooklyn have made inquiries about the kind of service pipe which it is best to use, and whether the Long Island water will be injuriously affected by being drawn from lead pipes.

Download or read book Water Supply written by Reginald E. Middleton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Supply: A Student's Handbook on the Conditions Governing the Selection of Sources and the Distribution of Water IN view of the many excellent treatises on Waterworks Engineering already in existence, it may appear that there is little opening for another work on the same subject. In the Opinion of the writer and the publishers of this book, however, there is still need for a small work, more particularly suitable, perhaps, for engineering students, setting forth in a compact manner the general scientific principles on which the subject is based, and serving as an introduction to the larger, more technical, and more highly priced treatises. It is in the hope of supplying such a need that the book makes its appearance. Special prominence has therefore been given to such questions as the quality of the water, the interpretation of analyses, the stability of masonry dams, the flow of water through the pipes, and the general application of mathematics to the subject, etc. At the same time, it has been the aim of the writer to bear well in mind the fact that theory is useless without practical knowledge to supplement it. Many 'rules of thumb' and practical hints, as well as descriptions of existing works, are given, based either on the writer's own experience or on that of others, and it is hoped that the young engineer will find the book useful as an introduction either to his practical work or to his study of more comprehensive books.

This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from "Water Supply" And "Drainage" Systematised and Simplified This small volume is in reality a supplement to the author's The Precise Calculation of Pipe Drain and Sewer Dimensions, ' but can, if so desired, be used without any reference thereto the help of many error-saving Tables, which find a place in the original work, being however in such case not available. It illustrates how the preparation of a project for either Water Supply' or Drainage can be systematised and simplified by a consideration of the hydraulic gradients' of the entire system and by their employment in ascertaining precisely from the parent work and the Tables therein, or very approximately from the two Scales in the present work, the dimensions of the pipes, drains or sewers needed for the particular scheme under consideration. As these dimensions can in either case be ascertained for any reasonable slope in the water surface and practically any required discharge by simple multiplication and a con sideration of the Tables or Scales, this work should be a special help to small corporations, colonists, planters, estate agents, and all who cannot afford or obtain other professional advice and assistance.

Download or read book Elements of Plumbing Classic Reprint written by Samuel Edward Dibble and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Plumbing Modern plumbing as a trade is the arranging and running of pipes to supply pure water to buildings, the erecting of fixtures for the use of this supply, and the installing of other pipes for the resulting waste water. The work of the trade divides itself therefore into two parts: first the providing an adequate supply of water; and second, the disposing of this water after use. The first division offers few problems to the plumber, little variety in the layout being possible, and the result depending mostly upon the arrangement of the pipes and fittings; but the second division calls for careful study in the arrangement, good workmanship in the install ing, and individual attention to each fixture. The trade had its beginnings in merely supplying fresh water to a community. This was done by means of trench ing, or conveying water from lakes, rivers, or springs through wooden pipes or Open troughs. By easy stages the trade improved and enlarged its scope, until at the present time it is able to provide for the adequate distribution of tons of water under high pressure furnished by the city water works.
