Crane Technical Paper No. 410
This paper is the standard reference for Engineers involved in the design or analysis of piping systems with steady state flow that utilize common piping elements such as elbows, tees, reducers/expanders and on-off valves. This valuable reference is an all inclusive work containing theory, practical applications to flow problems, useful data on physical properties of many common fluids (both gas and liquid), as well as common types of valves and fittings. Several examples of practical flow problems are presented with easy to understand step-by-step solutions.

Hydraulics of Pipelines
Hydraulics of Pipelines was written as a textbook for students of advanced hydraulic design, however it covers a number of useful topics for practicing engineers in the fields of valve and systems design. The subject of cavitation is thoroughly covered in three chapters including fundamentals and the influence on piping systems, valves, orifices, pumps, elbows and other piping components. Examples are provided to demonstrate methods for calculating the points at which different levels of cavitation are reached along with suggestions for avoiding it. Hydraulic transient (waterhammer) analysis is covered in detail including a thorough explanation of the concept, causes and suggested methods for controlling them. A section on the selection and proper operation of centrifugal pumps is included along with a discussion on potential problems with starting, operating and stopping pumps to avoid excessive pressure surge.

ISA Handbook of Control Valves
ISA Handbook of Control Valves is a complete source of information on all kinds of control valves. The Instrument Society of America's Process Measurement & Control Division sponsored this hard cover volume which contains 13 chapters and covers such diverse subjects as: Control valve components, definitions, terminology, materials and specifications. Detailed discussion on body types and trim. Extensive discussion on specifications. Detailed discussion on body types and trim. Extensive discussion on sizing including considerations of cavitation, flashing and noise. A full chapter on noise prediction. Positioners and related accessories. Installation and maintenance. Each section is written by one of over two dozen experts in the field of control valves who each contributed in their area of expertise. It blends together their collective knowledge on the subject matter in a convenient single volume text. The fact that control valve technology is still a developing science particularly in the areas of noise, flashing and cavitation, can be seen in the slightly differing approaches taken by the various authors in predicting these phenomena. Although this is a control valve handbook, it is still an excellent reference book for anyone with an interest in the general subject of valves.
