Fundamental physical properties of water are introduced together with water flow in pipes as part of a water supply system. The basic equations of continuity, momentum and energy conservation are introduced and friction and minor losses are considered in simple pipe systems. Operation and selection of pumps and hydrostatics and pressure transients are covered. Flow in open channels is introduced with application to waterways, aqueducts and pipes flowing partly full. Applications include design of spillways and culverts. -- Course Website
