Originally developed in 1942, the latest edition of Crane TP-410 has been fully updated to reflect the latest knowledge and research in the fluid handling industry. The TP-410 has served as an indispensable technical resource for over 60 years to specifying engineers, designers and engineering students. New in the latest Edition: For the latest edition, additional valves and their resistance coefficients were added based on tests performed within the Crane Engineering Laboratories. Industry research was gathered on the latest calculation methods for hydraulic resistance and in resistance values for wyes and tees. Chapters on pumps, control valves, and flow meters were included and over thirty-five new sources have been added to the book.
