Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers ten thermofluid dynamics problems involving the use of analytical solutions. All these problems have been encountered by the author during his research activity; some of the solutions are his own contributions, while others either are classic literature results or can be derived from them. The physical phenomena involved range from pure hydrodynamics to flow with heat or mass transfer, two-phase flow, and magnetohydrodynamics. The problems discussed are not canonical problems; they are rarely found in textbooks, and often exhibit surprising, or even paradoxical, solutions. The potential readership of the book includes students, teachers and scientists in science and engineering interested in fluid dynamics and heat/mass transfer: to them it may offer food for thought, suggestions for lectures or tutorials and ideas for further original developments.

Book Infrared Thermography for Thermo Fluid Dynamics

Download or read book Infrared Thermography for Thermo Fluid Dynamics written by Tommaso Astarita and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-04 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infrared thermography is a measurement technique that enables to obtain non intrusive measurements of surface temperatures. One of the interesting features of this technique is its ability to measure a full two dimensional map of the surface temperature and for this reason it has been widely used as a flow visualization technique. Since the temperature measurements can be extremely accurate it is possible, by using a heat flux sensor, also to measure convective heat transfer coefficient distributions on a surface making the technique de facto quantitative. This book, starting from the basic theory of infrared thermography and heat flux sensor guides, both the experienced researcher and the young student, in the correct application of this powerful technique to various practical problems. A significant number of examples and applications are also examined in detail.

Download or read book Engineering Thermofluids written by Mahmoud Massoud and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-09-16 with total page 1132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thermofluids, while a relatively modern term, is applied to the well-established field of thermal sciences, which is comprised of various intertwined disciplines. Thus mass, momentum, and heat transfer constitute the fundamentals of th- mofluids. This book discusses thermofluids in the context of thermodynamics, single- and two-phase flow, as well as heat transfer associated with single- and two-phase flows. Traditionally, the field of thermal sciences is taught in univer- ties by requiring students to study engineering thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer, in that order. In graduate school, these topics are discussed at more advanced levels. In recent years, however, there have been attempts to in- grate these topics through a unified approach. This approach makes sense as thermal design of widely varied systems ranging from hair dryers to semicond- tor chips to jet engines to nuclear power plants is based on the conservation eq- tions of mass, momentum, angular momentum, energy, and the second law of thermodynamics. While integrating these topics has recently gained popularity, it is hardly a new approach. For example, Bird, Stewart, and Lightfoot in Transport Phenomena, Rohsenow and Choi in Heat, Mass, and Momentum Transfer, El- Wakil, in Nuclear Heat Transport, and Todreas and Kazimi in Nuclear Systems have pursued a similar approach. These books, however, have been designed for advanced graduate level courses. More recently, undergraduate books using an - tegral approach are appearing.

Book A Text Book In Basic Thermo   Fluid Dynamics

Download or read book A Text Book In Basic Thermo Fluid Dynamics written by Mohammad R. a. Shaalan and published by Mohammad Raafat Shaalan. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is recognized that the study of mechanical engineering is built of a number of engineering sciences, some of which are of basic nature whereas some other are of applied nature. "Basic Thermodynamics" and "Basic Fluid Dynamics" are probably the two most important basic engineering sciences in the build of a Mechanical Power Engineer. In applied mechanical power engineering sciences, the principles introduced and analysed in these two basic sciences are common divisors. In other words, we may look at these two branches of basic engineering sciences as two legs on which Mechanical Power Engineering applications appear to stand. The science of "Basic Thermodynamics " is based mainly on a number of basic principles (in the form of laws) that lead to a number of equations describing and governing the behavior of several mechanical power systems. It is therefore of particular importance to introduce and analyse such equations. It is also essential to relate these principles and equations to each other and, whenever possible, to pertinent phenomena and applications. This may be achieved via worked examples that stem from from engineering practice. The science of "Basic Fluid Dynamics" is another basic engineering science of equal importance to "Basic Thermodynamics". The principles introduced and analysed by this basic science find applications in almost all applied mechanical power engineering sciences. Examples of these applied sciences are "Applied Thermodynamics", "Applied Fluid Dynamics", "Combustion Engineering"," Turbo-machinery", "Refrigeration and Air-conditioning", "Power Plants", "Gas dynamics". "Propulsion systems" ….etc. Because of the close inter-relation between the science of basic thermodynamics and the science of basic fluid dynamics, it has become a common practice to contained both sciences in one textbook under the title “Basic Thermo/fluid Dynamics” (the title of the present textbook). The present textbook on "Basic Thermo/fluid Dynamics" has been divided into distinct parts: A and B. In part A, we concentrate on "Basic Thermodynamics", attempting to present, with as much clarity as possible, the basic principles therein and giving several worked examples for the sake of clarification. In part B, we concentrate on "Basic Fluid Dynamics", applying the same philosophy as in Part A. In this part also, a special section (in chapter five) containing a rather concise manipulation of the applied science of "Compressible Fluid (Gas) Dynamics" is presented, being an important combined application of the basic principles discussed in thermodynamics and fluid dynamics. Moreover, It was felt by the authors that it is particularly important to include this section on gas dynamics, since, in spite of being applied in nature, it is regarded by many as basic more than applied. The last chapter of Part A and chapter five of Part B cover some important engineering applications of the principles given apriori. Each of these applications may be looked upon as a brief exposition of an applied engineering science carrying the title of the application under consideration. This was felt imperative to the advantage hopefully to be gained by the student. The authors are indebted to their colleague Dr. Mohammad S.H. Emeara of the Mechanical Power Engineering Department, Zagazig University, for assisting with part of the illustrations and wish to thank him for rendering this assistance in the early stages of preparation of this textbook.
