This book comprises select peer-reviewed proceedings of the 26th National Conference on IC Engines and Combustion (NCICEC) 2019 which was organised by the Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Institute of Technology Kurukshetra under the aegis of The Combustion Institute-Indian Section (CIIS).
The subject of Engineering Thermodynamics is a core course taught to the students of all disciplines of engineering in almost all the technical institutes and universities.
This introduction to thermodynamics discusses typical phase diagrams features and presents the wide range of techniques such as Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Thermogravimetry and others.
One of two self-contained volumes belonging to the newly revised Steel Heat Treatment Handbook, Second Edition, this book focuses on process design, equipment, and testing used in steel heat treatment.
This collection covers first principle and applied studies of thermodynamics and rate-governed phenomena including reaction kinetics and meso-, macro-scale transport of mass, momentum, and energy throughout the sequence of processing operations.
This book presents the state of the art of asymptotic and related mathematical methods, and how to apply them, as the means of choice, to representative building blocks of interfacial-flow phenomena.
This book pioneers the exploration of hybrid-energy cutting for aerospace alloys, summarizing cutting-edge research on laser-assisted, ultrasonic vibration-assisted, electrical-assisted, and hybrid-energies-assisted cutting.
Maintaining the excellent coverage of centrifugal pumps begun in the First Edition -- called ``useful' and ``indispensable' by reviewers -- the Second Edition continues to serve as the most complete and up-to-date working guide yet written for plant and design engineers involved with centrifugal pumps.
Presents a unique, stepwise exergy-based approach to thermodynamic concepts, systems, and applications Thermodynamics: A Smart Approach redefines this crucial branch of engineering as the science of energy and exergy rather than the science of energy and entropy to provide an innovative, step-by-step approach for teaching, understanding, and practicing thermodynamics in a clearer and easier way.
This book puts together non-equilibrium thermodynamics, heat transport properties of superfluid He II, and thermodynamic and dynamic aspects of quantum turbulence.
This book deals with in-cylinder pressure measurement and its post-processing for combustion quality analysis of conventional and advanced reciprocating engines.
Covering all aspects of transport phenomena on the nano- and micro-scale, Springer's Encyclopedia of Microfluidics and Nanofluidics includes over 750 entries in three alphabetically-arranged volumes including the most up-to-date research, insights, and applied techniques across all areas.
This book presents the developments of the finite volume method applied to fluid flows, starting from the foundations of the method and reaching the latest approaches using unstructured grids.
This book provides valuable information on polymer composite manufacturing, with a focus on liquid molding processes and the resin transfer molding technique (RTM).
Trotz diverser Sicherheitsmaßnahmen auf Zell- und Systemebene kann bei Lithium-Ionen-Batterien (LIB) der „Thermal Runaway“ (TR) auftreten, welcher im Brand und/oder der Explosion der LIB enden kann.
This book presents a collection of recent research on building diagnosis techniques related to construction pathology, hygrothermal behavior and durability, and diagnostic techniques.
This book presents a new approach for the modeling of chemical and interphase mass transfer processes in industrial column apparatuses, using convection-diffusion and average-concentration models.
This short but revealing biography tells the story of Kurt Mendelssohn FRS, one of the founding figures in the field of cryogenics, from his beginnings in Berlin through his move to Oxford in the 1930s, and his groundbreaking work in low temperature and solid state physics.
This book highlights the various aspects of architectural research based on field studies and real-time data including the data collection methods and the methodology and materials required.
Theory and Calculation of Heat Transfer in Furnaces covers the heat transfer process in furnaces, how it is related to energy exchange, the characteristics of efficiency, and the cleaning of combustion, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of the simultaneous physical and chemical processes that occur in boiler combustion, flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer.
Sebastian Hann describes the development of a quasi-dimensional burn rate model that enables the prediction of a fuel variation, without the need for a recalibration of the model.
This book presents mainly studies on the calculation methods of thermal radiative properties of uniaxial anisotropic materials, unidirectional transmission, ultrabroadband perfect absorption, and near-field radiative heat transfer with uniaxial anisotropic materials.
