Title: HP41 pipeline hydraulics and heat-transfer programs

Book ·
OSTI ID:5560499

This book is for engineers analyzing fluid and heat flow in pipelines, pipes and wells. This is a problem-solving book on pipeline hydraulics and heat transfer using HP41 programs. It details hands-on experience with rigorous, fast analysis methods. For use in field, office or classroom, it analyzes such topics as pipeline cooldown after shutdown. The book defines simple approximations for such lengthy problems as pipeline networks and transient analysis. And it embodies all of the rigor of microcomputer and mainframe computer programs. Contents include: Fundamentals; Fluid properties; Steady isothermal incompressible liquid flow; Steady isothermal gas flow; Steady isothermal multiphase flow; Steady thermal incompressible liquid flow; Steady thermal gas; Steady multiphase thermal flow; Transient isothermal incompressible liquid; Liquid cooldown; Warmup; Beyond the HP41.
