Practical Thermal Design of Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchangers is a practical book containing 35 detailed case studies that serve to illustrate concepts, relate different topics and introduce applications. Thermal designers of shell-and-tube heat exchangers (STHE) will find the book indispensable for understanding the mechanics of thermal-hydraulics in STHEs and thereby for utilizing commercially available software packages to produce optimum designs. The book explains the interplay of parameters. By understanding the behaviour of STHEs, process engineers will find this book essential for better...

This title clarifies the research, development, and design requirements in modern and computational terms needed for sustainable technological advances. It is written for the combustion scientist/engineer to understand radiative effects on the pollution of the environment. It interrelates the process of thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer and turbulence, and includes computational design tools. It also lays the foundation for the modelling and prediction of chemically reacting combustion systems; collects data for the operation of combustion devices; and...

Author of several well-received Process Engineering Guides in Heat Transfer , Peter Hills brings more than 25 years of experience in a variety of thermal applications. The book provides a practical insight into the design, operations, specification, and purchasing of heat transfer equipment. The engineer is led through logical understanding of all processes involved and taught to distinguish the practical applications from the computer codes. Covers a wide and detailed variety of process and power equipment.

Currently, public confidence in, and understanding of nuclear power and its associated technologies is low. However, in a properly regulated environment, nuclear power stations provide a safe and economic means of energy production. The authors of this text aim to educate the reader on nuclear power and its future potential. It focuses on nuclear accidents such as Chernobyl and Three Mile Island, and their consequences, with the understanding that there are safety lessons to be learned if nuclear power generation is going to be expanded to meet our growing energy needs.

This publication is intended primarily as a resource for a graduate course in thermal radiation heat transfer in engineering. The book would also be very useful for researchers and designers of heat transfer equipment. The text takes an holistic view, treating radiation as a volumetric phenomenon, and then treating surface radiation as a special case. A CD containing a popular engineering software package is included for the solving of radiation problems, and the smoothed-band model is introduced for handling gaseous exchange.

An enormous amount of heretofore unavailable data has been collected and presented in this volume. The data covers thermal, caloric and transport properties for aqueous systems: light and heavy water, their mixtures, hydrocarbons, alcohols, aqueous salts, aqueous hydrocarbons and aqueous alcohol solutions - all at high and critical parameters. Experimental data, instrumentation, data analysis and methods of measurement are given and analysed. This book is designed for specialists in molecular physics, chemical technology and chemical and power engineering, as well as researchers, lecturers,...
