Part I covers the general aspects of fluid flow and pumps including the governing theories of fluid flow. Part II covers the design and construction of pumps and auxiliaries, drives etc. Part III presents pump selection criteria and procurement actions including fittings and maintenance requirements. Part IV includes miscellaneous items like key to symbols, conversion tables etc. for reference. Various aspects of pumps have been explained in systematic detail, starting from basic concepts and going on to industrial applications. The exposition is well illustrated with diagrams and solved examples. With all these features, this is an invaluable book for practicing engineers and designers. Mechanical engineering students would also find it extremely useful.
