This comprehensive study of reciprocating power pumps is a must-read for any engineer or scientist interested in fluid mechanics. William Atkinson North covers the theory behind pump operation, including the dynamics of fluid flow and the effects of valve timing. He then presents his experimental findings on a specific pump design, including detailed analysis of the valve action. With clear diagrams and concise prose, this book is a classic of hydraulic engineering.
