assumed to have been covered in the required physics, chemistry, or basic-engineering courses.
The second part, which deals with the various factors affecting the relationship between the rate of flow and the various pressures tending to cause or inhibit flow, will be treated in detail.
More specifically, such things as the amount of a fluid, water, air, milk, or brine, e.g., flowing through a system of pipes if the pressure causing the flow is known or the power required to produce a desired rate of air flow through grain which is to be dried will be considered.
The individual factors involved will be studied and related to the various fluid-flow applications in which the processing engineer is interested.
