Thermal Sciences for Machines
Cornetti, Giorgio.
Thermal Sciences for Machines [electronic resource] / by Giorgio Cornetti. - 1st ed. 2024. - XXIII, 758 p. 414 illus., 406 illus. in color. online resource. - Springer Tracts in Mechanical Engineering, 2195-9870 . - Springer Tracts in Mechanical Engineering, .
Heat transfer -- Thermodynamics -- Vapors -- Thermodynamic cycles -- Dynamics of compressible fluids -- Mixtures and fuels -- Boilers -- Design of boiler components -- Vapor power plants -- Condensers -- Steam turbines -- Fans and compressors -- Gas turbines -- Refrigeration, heat pump and air conditioning -- Aerospace propulsion -- Internal combustion engines -- Internal combustion engine complements.
This second volume of the textbook Hydraulic and Thermal Machines focuses on thermal machines. It covers the fundamentals of heat transfer and thermodynamics for reacting and non-reacting mixtures, and compressible fluids, followed by the principles of design, control and operation of thermal machines. With an uncomplicated yet rigorous approach, and using numerous examples, the book gradually guides readers through different kind of fluid machines/systems such as compressors, turbines, vapor and gas turbine power plants, internal combustion engines, and hybrid systems, discussing important issues for their application in propulsion. Furthermore, the book covers reversed cycle systems, with a special attention to air conditioning.
