This book provides a concise and up-to-date summary of the
essential thermo-hydraulic analyses and design principles of
nuclear reactors for electricity generation. Beginning with the
basic nuclear physics, it leads through technical and quantitative
analyses to descriptions of both the normal operation of the
various modern nuclear reactor designs and the analyses of the
possible departures from normal operation. It then describes both
the postulated accident scenarios and summaries of the causes for
the three major nuclear power generation accidents, Three Mile
Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima, as well as the major improvements
to reactor safety that grew out of those analyses and accidents.
When classifying fracturing fluids and their additives, it is

This two-volume book is a comprehensive guide to designing,
conducting and interpreting experiments in a broad range of topics
associated with hydraulic engineering. It is the first substantial
effort in hydraulic engineering to assemble in one place
descriptions of all the components of experimentation along with a
concise outline of essential theory to highlight the intrinsic
connection between analytical and experimental research and
illustrate the need for their complementary use. Providing
end-to-end guidance to support experimentalists is long overdue, as
most of the information can only be found in scientific papers or
specialized monographs on laboratory and fieldwork practice. The
book was prepared for college faculty, researchers, practitioners,
and students involved in hydraulics experiments. Written by a team
of more than 45 authors well-experienced in hydraulics
experimentation, the book takes into account experiments performed
under a range of conditions, including well-equipped and -staffed
laboratories, and laboratories lacking aspects of advanced
instrumentation and expertise. The book could serve as a textbook
on hydraulics experiments. Its style is intentionally concise and
makes frequent use of convenient summaries, tables and figures to
present information. The writers provide specific guidance on
methods and instruments currently used in hydraulics experiments,
and emphasizes new and emerging measurement technologies and
analysis methods. Extensive references enable interested readers to
further explore details on each topic. Although the book focuses
primarily on laboratory experiments, including hydraulic modelling,
it also applies to fieldwork of varying complexity and
accessibility.
Hydraulic Fracturing Impacts and Technologies: A Multidisciplinary
Perspective serves as an introduction to hydraulic fracturing and
provides balanced coverage of its benefits and potential negative
effects. Presenting a holistic assessment of hydraulic fracturing
and its environmental impacts, this book chronicles the history and
development of unconventional oil and gas production and describes
the risks associated with the use of these technologies. More
specifically, it addresses hydraulic fracturing's use and
dependence on large amounts of water as a fracturing medium. It
examines the limits of reusing flowback and produced water,
explores cost-effective ways to clean or effectively dispose of
water used in fracturing, and provides suggestions for the
efficient use, discovery, and recycle potential of non-potable
water. Utilizing a team of experts from industry and academia, the
text provides readers with a multiple lens approach-incorporating
various perspectives and solutions surrounding this evolving
technology. This book: Leads with an overview of hydraulic
fracturing operations and technologies Considers a variety of legal
issues associated with hydraulic fracturing Summarizes human health
and environmental risks associated with hydraulic fracturing
operations Discusses the analytes chosen by researchers as possible
indicators of groundwater contamination from unconventional
drilling processes Presents strategies for reducing the freshwater
footprint of hydraulic fracturing Discusses water treatment
technologies and solutions to recycle and reuse produced waters,
and more Hydraulic Fracturing Impacts and Technologies: A
Multidisciplinary Perspective brings together experts from
disciplines that include petroleum, civil, and environmental
engineering; environmental sciences chemistry toxicology; law;
media; and communications; and provides readers with a
multidisciplinary outlook and unbiased, scientifically credible
solutions to issues surrounding hydraulic fracturing operations.
Presenting research on reactive flows, this work covers theoretical
aspects, experimental techniques and the development of models
implemented in computational fluid dynamics software.
Siltation in reservoirs has become an important problem when dams
are getting older and stop functioning when the sediment has
accumulated to a certain extent. With proper sediment management
techniques, negative effects of sediment can be avoided and
reservoir life and performance can be improved. This volume deals
with reservoir sedimentation, deposition and removal. It provides
the principles of sediment transport and gives guidelines to
predict reservoir life. It presents several removal techniques,
accompanied with detailed operation descriptions. With the help of
the RESCON open source software, cost analysis tools to determine
the optimum method for maintenance and operation of a reservoir can
be applied. To illustrate practice and to assist the reader in
setting up a sediment management operation, a number of case
studies of existing large dams are included. Written by two experts
on reservoir operation, this volume is intended for professionals
and advanced students working on dam and reservoir design,
construction, operation, maintenance and rehabilitation.
One of the effects of global climate change is the increasing
variability of extreme flood events and cyclones. Current measures
to mitigate flood impacts, particularly in the urban environment,
are based on previously-planned flood risk intervals and no longer
provide sufficient protection. Being prepared for unexpected
changes and extreme flood events asks for a paradigm shift in
current strategies to avoid and manage flood disasters. In order to
stem the increasing impact of urban floods, a major rethink of
current planning and flood management policies and practice is
required, taking into account different spatial and temporal
scales. This book addresses a broad spectrum of relevant issues in
the emerging field of urban flood management. It may act as a
stimulus for further research and development in urban flood
management while informing and engaging stakeholders in the
promotion of integrated and cooperative approaches in water
management. An interdisciplinary approach which will be of interest
to all those who are active in water, risk and urban management.
'Fundamentals of Rotating Equipment' is an overview of the main
types of rotating machinery in industry, and covers such aspects as
system dynamics, surge control, vibration and balancing, radial
bearing design, performance parameters, rotor system design and
operation, rotor axial (thrust) forces, performance objectives and
mechanical restraints, auxiliary systems and seals. This book will
enhance rotating equipment reliability and safety throughout the
many industries where such equipment is vital to a successful
business. Over recent years there have been substantial changes in
those industries which are concerned with the design, purchase and
use of special purpose (ie critical, high-revenue) rotating
equipment. Key personnel have been the victims of early retirement
or have moved to other industries: contractors and end-users have
reduced their technical staff and consequently have to learn
complex material 'from scratch'. As a result, many companies are
finding that they are devoting unnecessary man hours to the
discovery and explanation of basic principles, and having to
explain these to clients who should already be aware of them. In
addition, the lack of understanding by contractors and users of
equipment characteristics and operating systems often results in a
'wrong fit' and a costly reliability problem. The stakes can be
high, and it against this background that this book has been
published. It is the outcome of many years experience and is based
on well-honed teaching material which is easily readable,
understandable and actually enjoyable! This is a five volume set.
The volumes are: 1. Fundamentals of Rotating Equipment 2. Pumps 3.
Compressors 4. Auxiliary Systems 5. Reliability Optimization thru
Component Condition Monitoring and Root Cause Analysis
