The Dispersion of Water Feature Design KnowledgeDispersion Water Feature Design Knowledge 6206771635.jpg Dissiminating practical hydraulic information and fountain design ideas throughout Europe was accomplished with the published papers and illustrated books of the time. An un-named French fountain developer was an internationally celebrated hydraulic leader in the late 1500's. With Royal commissions in Brussels, London and Germany, he began his career in Italy, building knowledge in garden design and grottoes with incorporated and clever water hydraulics. The publication, “The Principles of Moving Forces,” written near the end of his lifetime in France, turned out to be the fundamental text on hydraulic mechanics and engineering. The book updated key hydraulic breakthroughs since classical antiquity as well as describing contemporary hydraulic technologies. The water screw, a technical means to move water, and developed by Archimedes, was showcased in the book. Natural light warmed the liquid in a pair of undetectable containers adjoining to the ornamental fountain were displayed in an illustration. The hot liquid expands and subsequently ascends and shuts the water pipes consequently triggering the fountain. Models for pumps, water wheels, water attributes and garden ponds are also covered in the guide.
