Thermal Engineering (ISBN-13: 9788189401207)

About the BookAuthors of Thermal Engineering are happy to present a long standing requirement of a book which will be usefulto the students from first year to final year mechanical engineering course from various universities. This book coversquite wide spectrum of topics like fundamental concepts, first & second law of thermodynamics, IC engines, Systemsof IC engines, Compressors & Gas turbines, Jet propulsion system, Boilers, properties of steam, Steam nozzles and Turbines, Condensers, Refrigeration and air-conditioning, Heat transfer, Fuels and combustion. New topics of today’sinterest like pollution and pollution control have been covered. Topics like metal cutting / joining process, machinedevices & elements, introduction of mecahatronics have also been included. This would give preliminary exposure tothe students going to non-mechanical course to acquire some basic ideas about the manufacturing industry. Thesetopics are intended to be studied by all students in the first year level in most of the universities.Features:All topics included in the chapters have been thoroughly described.A large number of solved problems on different topics are included. Numerical problems with answers, as well as theoretical questions have been included for the students to practice.Clear & simple figures have been included in each chapter for better understanding & also to enable students to draw / reproduce thesein the examination easily.In the entire book SI system of units is used.Author: Prof. G.K.
