Practical Thermodynamics (Classic Reprint): A Treatise on the Theory and Design of Heat Engines, Refrigeration Machinery, and Other Power-Plant ... Other Power-Plant Apparatus (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
This book delves into the fascinating realm of thermodynamics, exploring the fundamental principles governing the operation of heat engines and other energy-transforming machines. Written with clarity and a focus on physical understanding rather than complex mathematics, it serves as an invaluable resource for students and engineers seeking to grasp the intricacies of energy conversion. Emerging from the scientific advancements of the 19th century, this book offers a comprehensive treatment of thermodynamic concepts, encompassing the behavior of gases and vapors, thermodynamic cycles, and the design and analysis of steam engines, turbines, and internal combustion engines. It delves into topics such as combustion, boiler operation, refrigeration, and heating and ventilation systems, providing a holistic understanding of the diverse applications of thermodynamics in engineering. The author's approach emphasizes logical reasoning and practical applications, making complex ideas accessible to readers with varying levels of technical expertise. By avoiding unnecessary abstractions and focusing on real-world examples, the book effectively bridges the gap between theoretical principles and their engineering implementations. Ultimately, this book empowers readers with the knowledge and tools to understand, design, and optimize thermodynamic systems, contributing to the advancement of efficient and sustainable energy technologies that shape our modern world.

Excerpt from Practical Thermodynamics: A Treatise on the Theory and Design of Heat Engines, Refrigeration Machinery, and Other Power-Plant Apparatus
The writer has attempted at all times to bring most Of the work well within the comprehension Of the average technical student. In some places it will seem as if he had made his treatment Of the work absurdly simple, as, for instance, in the description Of the steam engine. He believes, however, that many Of the difficulties encountered by students arise from a misunderstanding Of facts which seem to the teacher to be perfectly obvious and which the teacher mistakenly believes that the student thoroughly understands. Another difficulty Often encountered in teaching thermodynamics arises from the fact that an inadequate preparation precedes the study Of the phenomena Of heat engines and other thermodynamic machinery. The author has therefore endeavored to present in the first seven chapters Of the book the fundamental physical principles upon which a further study Of the subject must depend, in such a thorough and simple manner that no trouble need subsequently arise from a misunderstanding Of these fundamentals.

Excerpt from Practical Thermodynamics: A Treatise on the Theory and Design of Heat Engines, Refrigeration Machinery, and Other Power-Plant Apparatus
IN writing this volume the author has endeavored to present the natural laws and physical principles which underlie the action of thermodynamic apparatus in such a manner as to enable the student not only to compre hend the principles upon which the apparatus depends for its operation, but also to assist him to correctly design such an apparatus, to operate it, and to judge of its value.
