Advanced Thermodynamics for Engineers

Butterworth-Heinemann, 1996

Particularly strong on worked examples.,Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers,

Although the basic theories of thermodynamics are adequately covered by a number of existing texts, there is little literature that addresses more advanced topics. In this comprehensive work the author redresses this balance, drawing on his...

Air Conditioning Engineering, Fifth Edition

Butterworth-Heinemann, 2001

Although the fundamentals of the subject have not altered since the publication of the last edition there have been significant changes in the development and application of air conditioning. Among these are concerns about indoor air quality, revision of outside design data and the expression of cooling loads arising from solar radiation through...

Thermodynamics of Natural Systems

Cambridge University Press, 2005

'This is an excellent text of use to earth science senior undergraduates and graduates that need to develop a thorough understanding of thermodynamics.’?Geoscientist

Thermodynamics deals with energy levels and the transfer of energy between states of matter, and is therefore fundamental to all branches of science. This new...

Introduction to Thermo-Fluids Systems Design

John Wiley & Sons, 2012

A fully comprehensive guide to thermal systems design covering fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, heat transfer and thermodynamic power cycles

Bridging the gap between the fundamental concepts of fluid mechanics, heat transfer and thermodynamics, and the practical design of thermo-fluids components and systems, this...

Cool Thermodynamics: Engineering and Physics of Predictive, Diagnostic and Optimization Methods for Cooling Systems

Cambridge University Press, 2000

This book is geared toward those interested in the engineering and physics of airconditioning and refrigeration devices (chillers). Analytic thermodynamic models are developed for a wide variety of cooling systems and a broad range of operating conditions. These models are easily implemented in the field or laboratory. Although the authors...

Understanding Distillation Using Column Profile Maps

John Wiley & Sons, 2012

Researchers share their pioneering graphical method for designing almost any distillation structure

Developed by the authors in collaboration with other researchers at the Centre of Material and Process Synthesis, column profile maps (CPMs) enable chemical engineers to design almost any distillation structure using novel...

Anisotropic Metal Chalcogenide Nanomaterials: Synthesis, Assembly, and Applications (SpringerBriefs in Materials)

Springer, 2019

This book explores the recent advances in designing and synthesizing one- and two-dimensional metal chalcogenide nanostructures, along with their practical applications, helping readers understand what has happened, and what is currently happening in the field of nanotechnology. It also includes a comprehensive table showing...

The Bethe Wavefunction

Cambridge University Press, 2014

Michel Gaudin's book La fonction d'onde de Bethe is a uniquely influential masterpiece on exactly solvable models of quantum mechanics and statistical physics. Available in English for the first time, this translation brings his classic work to a new generation of graduate students and researchers in physics. It presents a mixture of...

The Thermophysics of Porous Media

CRC Press, 2001

Models for the mechanical behavior of porous media introduced more than 50 years ago are still relied upon today, but more recent work shows that, in some cases, they may violate the laws of thermodynamics. In The Thermophysics of Porous Media, the author shows that physical consistency requires a unique description of dynamic processes that...

Theory and Simulation of Hard-Sphere Fluids and Related Systems (Lecture Notes in Physics)

Springer, 2008

Hard spheres and related objects (hard disks and mixtures of hard systems) are paradigmatic systems: indeed, they have served as a basis for the theoretical and numerical development of a number of fields, such as general liquids and fluids, amorphous solids, liquid crystals, colloids and granular matter, to name but a few. The present volume...

Introduction to Continuum Mechanics

Cambridge University Press, 2009

This textbook treats solids and fluids in a balanced manner, using thermodynamic restrictions on the relation between applied forces and material responses. This unified approach can be appreciated by engineers, physicists, and applied mathematicians with some background in engineering mechanics. It has many examples and about 150 exercises for...

Introduction to Reactive Gas Dynamics

Oxford University Press, 2009

In the high energy gas flows, associating high velocities and high temperatures, physical and chemical processes such as molecular vibrational excitation, dissociation, ionisation or various reactions take palce and deeply influence the structure of the flows. The characteristic times of these processes have the same order of magnitude as...
