Description for Principles of Combustion
Hardcover. Principles of Combustion, Second Edition is a revision of a classic book devoted to the fundamentals of chemically reacting flow systems with application to power production, jet and rocket propulsion, fire prevention and safety, pollution control, and material processing industries. Num Pages: 760 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: HRC; THF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 243 x 166 x 45. Weight in Grams: 1236.
Principles of Combustion, Second Edition is a revision of what was the leading book on combustion engineering. The new edition has been revised to include new theoretical results and measurement techniques of non-intrusive diagnostic methods, contains more material on chemical kinetics during ignition; and is expanded to provide more in-depth treatment of sensitivity analysis and methods for identifying controlling chemical mechanisms. Expanded coverage is combined with the latest results regarding turbulent activity during combustion and the chemical kinetics of flames.
