Blatant Advertising - Pumps

Jacques Chaurette's site (www.fluidedesign.com) features some pretty interesting stuff about pumping which should be of interest to serious piping designers. The direct URL is <a href="http://www.fluidedesign.com/s43.htm.">http://www.fluidedesign.com/s43.htm.</a> Go there, you won't be disappointed. Somehow, I think Chris will like this site, and I've had it linked ever since I originally found it. Unless someone has better info, that page is the de facto standard on the web.

Here's an excerpt:

<<A FEW WORDS ABOUT ENGINEERS AND PUMP SYSTEM CALCULATIONS

Graduate engineers, and I am thinking particularly about mechanical engineers of which I am one, leave university with the impression that the secrets of the universe were revealed, and now the task of rebuilding the world can begin. A mechanical engineer, if he's lucky, may get 20 hours of instruction on pumping systems and how they are designed. This is sufficient for them to believe that their knowledge of the subject is complete and what they do not know is probably not worth knowing.>>

Jacques also offers an excellent book which you can order via his website. I've got a copy here, but finding the offer from the website was a bit difficult.
