Description: This book is
about the fundamentals of turbomachinery, the basic operation of pumps,
aircraft engines, wind turbines, turbomachinery for power generation and
hydro-electric machines. It compliments courses that you will be studying in
these areas by concentrating on getting the basics right. Enormous emphasis is
placed on relating the complex geometry of turbomachines to the fundamental
analysis models used throughout the design of all turbomachinery. The simple
techniques described in the book provide the basis for preliminary design of
all turbomachinery and so mastering the concepts in this book provides a solid
foundation for later study.
