Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

Scientific progress is not usually straightforward. Researchers pursue and abandon lines of inquiry. Results languish. Theories take decades to cohere. But sometimes the accumulation of scientific ...

Previous chapters have addressed fracture geometry, physical and geomechanical properties of single fractures, fracture detection, and the interpretation of hydraulic and tracer tests. All of these ...

Rotameter flow meters are devices that can measure the flowrate of liquids and gases. Generally, the rotameter is a tube made of plastic, glass or metal combined with a float, which responds linearly ...
