Thermodynamics and Energy Systems Analysis Volume Two, Solved Problems and Exercises Lucien Borel, Daniel Favrat, Dinh Lan Nguyen, and Magdi Batato
Chemical Thermodynamics and Information Theory with Applications Daniel J. Graham Loyola University, Chicago, Illinois, USA
This book illustrates the basic concepts of phenomenological thermodynamics and how to move from theory to practice by considering problems in the fields of thermodynamics and energy-systems analysis. Many subjects are handled from a energetics or exergetics angle: calorimeters, evaporators, condensers, flow meters, sub- or supersonic nozzles, ejectors, compressors, pumps, turbines, combustion processes, heaters, smoke stacks, cooling towers, motors, turbo-reactors, heat pumps, air conditioning, thermo-electrical generators, energy storage, and more.
In an approach that intertwines information science and chemistry, this book covers the informational aspects of thermodynamic state equations, the algorithmic aspects of transformations, the principles of best-practice programming, and how molecules transmit and modify information via collisions and chemical reactions. Using examples from physical and organic chemistry, it demonstrates how the disciplines of thermodynamics and information theory are intertwined. The book provides a fresh perspective on time-honored subjects such as state transformations, heat and work exchanges, and chemical reactions.

Fluid Dynamics Instabilities of Flows and Transition to Turbulence Tapan K. Sengupta Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kanpur
Addressing classical material as well as new perspectives, this book presents a concise, up-to-date treatment of theory and applications of viscous flow instability. It covers materials from classical instability to contemporary research areas including bluff body flow instability, mixed convection flows, and application areas of aerospace and other branches of engineering. Transforms and perturbation techniques are used to link linear instability with receptivity of flows, as developed by the author. The book: • Provides complete coverage of transition concepts, including receptivity and flow instability • Introduces linear receptivity using bi-lateral Fourier-Laplace transform techniques • Presents natural laminar flow (NLF) airfoil analysis and design as a practical application of classical and bypass transition • Distinguishes strictly between instability and receptivity, which leads to identification of wall- and free stream-modes • Describes energy-based receptivity theory for the description of bypass transitions This book has evolved into an account of the personal research interests of the author over the years. A conscious effort has been made to keep the treatment at an elementary level requiring rudimentary knowledge of calculus, the FourierLaplace transform, and complex analysis. The book is equally amenable to undergraduate students, as well as researchers in the field. Selected Contents: Introduction to Instability and Transition. Computing Transitional and Turbulent Flows. Instability and Transition in Flows. Bypass Transition: Theory, Computations and Experiments. Spatio-Temporal Wave Front and Transition.

Dudley's Handbook of Practical Gear Design and Manufacture Second Edition
Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering
Stephen P. Radzevich
Charles A. Gross and Thaddeus Roppel
Eaton Corporation, Southfield, Michigan, USA
Auburn University, Alabama, USA
For more than 30 years, the book Practical Gear Design, later re-titled the Handbook of Practical Gear Design, has been the leading engineering guide and reference on the subject. Now available again in this revised edition, the book is a detailed, practical guide and reference to gear technology. It covers the design of all types of gears, from those for small mechanisms to large industrial applications. The presentation is designed for easy reference for those involved in practical gear design, manufacture, applications, and problem solving.
Co-authored by Charles Gross—one of the most well-known and respected professors in the field of electric machines and power engineering— and his world-renowned colleague Thad Roppel, this book provides an overview of the profession for engineering professionals and students whose specialization lies in areas other than electrical. For instance, civil engineers must contend with commercial electrical service and lighting design issues. Mechanical engineers have to deal with motors in HVAC applications, and chemical engineers are forced to handle problems involving process control.
