PREFACE

This Fluid Machinery Design book is providing step by step process on

making Theoretical and Actual Piping Network, where the solutions are written in
which other student can be easily follow the flow. Design of the pump, water tank
and a hydroelectric power plant with a dam is also included. Formulas, data,
images and values are also indicated on this book.
In writing this requirement book determination and patience is a must.
This book signifies all the knowledge I have learned from my professor
throughout the subject.

AKNOWLEDGEMENT

I have taken all efforts in this design. However, it would not have been
possible without the kind support and help of many individuals. I would like to
extent my sincere thanks to all of them.
I am highly indebted to my professor, Engr. Rodrigo M. Garcia, for the
guidance and constant supervision as well as providing necessary information
regarding the design of Fluid Machinery. I would like to express my gratitude to
my parents and friends for their emotional and financial support.
