Pipeline Engineering 2004

Pipeline engineering has struggled to develop as a single field of study due to the wide range of industries and government organizations using different types of pipelines for all types of solids, liquids, and gases. This fragmentation has impeded professional development, job mobility, technology transfer, the diffusion of knowledge, and the movement of manpower. No single, authoritative course or book has existed to unite practitioners. In response, Pipeline Engineering covers the essential aspects and types of pipeline engineering in a single volume. This work is divided into two parts. Part I, Pipe Flows, delivers an integrated treatment of all variants of pipe flow including incompressible and compressible, Newtonian and non-Newtonian, slurry and multiphase flows, capsule flows, and pneumatic transport of solids. Part II, Engineering Considerations, summarizes the equipment and methods required for successful planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of pipelines. By addressing the fundamentals of pipeline engineering-concepts, theories, equations, and facts-this groundbreaking text identifies the cornerstones of the discipline, providing engineers with a springboard to success in the field. It is a must-read for all pipeline engineers.

All around the world, pipelines ensure the economic transmission of essential fluids to different industries and residential buildings. The discipline of pipeline engineering covers a wide range of topics, including design, construction, operation, instrumentation, maintenance, integrity, management, corrosion, and failure. Probably the most significant subjects are design, failure, and management, as these specialties have direct impacts on all other aspects of pipeline engineering. This book focuses on some recent evidence-based developments in these fields. The chapters include experiment-, simulation-, and analysis-based studies. The contributing authors come from diverse geographical locations with strong experience in their respective fields. The technological aspects examined here would definitely reinforce a pipeline engineer’s decision-making process.
