''Through two previous editions, thousands of international
engineers have turned to this handbook for reliable and complete
information on the selection, design, specification, and
installation of flowmeters to measure liquid, gas, and steam flows
within all engineering applications.
''Now the Third Edition brings you
completely up to date, with new and expanded coverage of: The
latest ISO, ASME, and ANSI-related standards--including guidelines
for implementing them in your designs and installations. Meter
influence quantities for all flowmeters; widely used flowmeters
around the world, including thermal mass, GILFLO, "V" Cone, wedge
flow-meter, Laminar Flow elements, and pilot tubes; The latest
proposed orifice and nozzle equations, complete with examples.
''As practical as it is authoritative,
this handbook serves as a single-source guide for selecting,
sizing, and performing pipe flow rate calculations. It features
both customary and SI equations throughout. . .complete coverage
of fluid properties and equations of state. . .key information on
seven-place equation constants and simplifying equations. . .and
includes many examples, graphs, tables, and practical applications
to aid in decision making, improve job performance, and save time
and expense.
''This comprehensive reference covers
everything from industry-wide standards and practices, to specific
descriptions and examples, to physical property data and
installation requirements. As a result, this edition remains the
standard reference in the field and is the only guide to flowmeter
engineering that you'll ever need.''
