Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Steam Turbines and Turbo-Compressors: Their Design and Construction There is a need, the author believes, for a book on Steam Turbines which shall not be simply a popular description of existing machines, nor yet a mathematical treatise, and which shall not be a mere compilation from the patent records. In fact, an attempt has been made to produce a book which shall not be so deeply involved in mathematics, or so insistent on the necessity for the attainment of the highest thermal efficiencies, regardless of the thousand-and-one modifying practical influences, as to be at once above and beneath the intelligence of the practical engineer. It is hoped, indeed, that the treatment of the subject in this book is practical in the best sense. A theory, to be true, should be a complete and rational explanation of all phenomena which come within its scope. There is no true theory in this wide sense, for the simple reason that our knowledge is not extensive enough to construct one. Consequently, we require to be very careful not to be too dogmatic in applying our necessarily imperfect knowledge to the manifold uses of practical engineering. In particular, we must keep in mind the fact that it is the all-round commercial efficiency, and not the thermal or mechanical efficiencies, which decide the ultimate success or failure of a machine. It is to be hoped that this economic bias in the book will not frighten students from making use of it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Principles of Turbomachinery written by Seppo A. Korpela and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-05-29 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A newly updated and expanded edition that combines theory and applications of turbomachinery while covering several different types of turbomachinery In mechanical engineering, turbomachinery describes machines that transfer energy between a rotor and a fluid, including turbines, compressors, and pumps. Aiming for a unified treatment of the subject matter, with consistent notation and concepts, this new edition of a highly popular book provides all new information on turbomachinery, and includes 50% more exercises than the previous edition. It allows readers to easily move from a study of the most successful textbooks on thermodynamics and fluid dynamics to the subject of turbomachinery. The book also builds concepts systematically as progress is made through each chapter so that the user can progress at their own pace. Principles of Turbomachinery, 2nd Edition provides comprehensive coverage of everything readers need to know, including chapters on: thermodynamics, compressible flow, and principles of turbomachinery analysis. The book also looks at steam turbines, axial turbines, axial compressors, centrifugal compressors and pumps, radial inflow turbines, hydraulic turbines, hydraulic transmission of power, and wind turbines. New chapters on droplet laden flows of steam and oblique shocks help make this an incredibly current and well-rounded resource for students and practicing engineers. Includes 50% more exercises than the previous edition Uses MATLAB or GNU/OCTAVE for all the examples and exercises for which computer calculations are needed, including those for steam Allows for a smooth transition from the study of thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer to the subject of turbomachinery for students and professionals Organizes content so that more difficult material is left to the later sections of each chapter, allowing instructors to customize and tailor their courses for their students Principles of Turbomachinery is an excellent book for students and professionals in mechanical, chemical, and aeronautical engineering.

Download or read book Principles of Turbomachinery written by Seppo A. Korpela and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-01-03 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The text is based on a course on turbomachinery which the author has taught since year 2000 as a technical elective. Topics include; Energy Transfer in Turbomachines, Gas and Steam Turbines, and Hydraulic Turbines. New material on wind turbines, and three-dimensional effects in axial turbomachines is included. The level is kept as such that students can smoothly move from a study of the most successful books in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer to the subject of turbomachinery. The chapters are organized in such a way that the more difficult material is left to the later sections of each chapter. Thus, depending on the level of the students, instructors can tailor their course by omitting some sections. Key features: Combines theory and applications to show how gas turbines, pumps and compressor function Allows for a smooth transition from the study of thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer to the subject of turbomachinery for students and professionals Relates turbomachinery to new areas such as wind power and three-dimensional effects in axial turbomachines Provides information on several types of turbomachinery rather than concentrating specifically on one type such as centrifugal compressors

Download or read book Radial Flow Turbocompressors written by Michael Casey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-10 with total page 789 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to the theory and engineering practice that underpins the component design and analysis of radial flow turbocompressors. Drawing upon an extensive theoretical background and years of practical experience, the authors provide descriptions of applications, concepts, component design, analysis tools, performance maps, flow stability, and structural integrity, with illustrative examples. Features wide coverage of all types of radial compressor over many applications unified by the consistent use of dimensional analysis. Discusses the methods needed to analyse the performance, flow, and mechanical integrity that underpin the design of efficient centrifugal compressors with good flow range and stability. Includes explanation of the design of all radial compressor components, including inlet guide vanes, impellers, diffusers, volutes, return channels, de-swirl vanes and side-streams. Suitable as a reference for advanced students of turbomachinery, and a perfect tool for practising mechanical and aerospace engineers already within the field and those just entering it.
