Description
Springer Engineering Flow And Heat Exchange 2014 Edition by Octave Levenspiel
The third edition of Engineering Flow and Heat Exchange is the most practical textbook available on the design of heat transfer and equipment. This book is an excellent introduction to real-world applications for advanced undergraduates and an indispensable reference for professionals. The book includes comprehensive chapters on the different types and classifications of fluids how to analyze fluids and where a particular fluid fits into a broader picture. This book includes various a wide variety of problems and solutions - some whimsical and others directly from industrial applications.Numerous practical examples of heat transferDifferent from other introductory books on fluidsClearly written simple to understand written for students to absorb material quicklyDiscusses non-Newtonian as well as Newtonian fluidsCovers the entire field conciselySolutions manual with worked examples and solutions provided Table of contents : Basic Equations for Flowing Streams.- Flow of Incompressible Newtonian Fluids in Pipes.- Compressible Flow of Gases.- Molecular Flow .-Non-Newtonian Fluids.- Flow Through Packed Beds.- Flow in Fluidized Beds.- Solid Particles Falling Through Fluids.- The Three Mechanisms of Heat Transfer: Conduction Convection and Radiation.- Combination of Heat Transfer Resistances.- Unsteady-state Heating and Cooling of Solid Objects.- Introduction to Heat Exchangers.- Recuperators: Through-the-Wall Nonstoring Exchangers.- Direct-Contact Gas-Solid Nonstoring Exchangers.- Heat Regenerators: Direct-Contact Heat Storing Exchangers Using a Batch of Solids.- Potpourri of Problems.
