Description: The text is
based on a course on turbomachinery which the author has taught since year 2000
as a technical elective. Topics include; Energy Transfer in Turbomachines, Gas
and Steam Turbines, and Hydraulic Turbines. New material on wind turbines, and
three-dimensional effects in axial turbomachines is included.
The level is
kept as such that students can smoothly move from a study of the most
successful books in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer to the
subject of turbomachinery. The chapters are organized in such a way that the
more difficult material is left to the later sections of each chapter. Thus,
depending on the level of the students, instructors can tailor their course by
omitting some sections.
Key features:
Combines theory
and applications to show how gas turbines, pumps and compressor function
Allows for a
smooth transition from the study of thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and heat
transfer to the subject of turbomachinery for students and professionals
Relates
turbomachinery to areas such as wind power and three-dimensional effects in
axial turbomachines
Provides
information on several types of turbomachinery rather than concentrating
specifically on one type such as centrifugal compressors
