Introduction to Thermal and Fluid Engineering

By: Allan D. Kraus,James R. Welty,Abdul Aziz

Introduction to Thermal and Fluid Engineering combines coverage of basic thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer for a one- or two-term course for a variety of engineering majors. The book covers fundamental concepts, definitions, and models in the context of engineering examples and case studies. It carefully explains the methods used to evaluate changes in equilibrium, mass, energy, and other measurable properties, most notably temperature. It then also discusses techniques used to assess the effects of those changes on large, multi-component systems in areas ranging from mechanical, civil, and environmental engineering to electrical and computer technologies. Includes a motivational student study guide on CD to promote successful evaluation of energy systems This material helps readers optimize problem solving using practices to determine equilibrium limits and entropy, as well as track energy forms and rates of progress for processes in both closed and open thermodynamic systems. Presenting a variety of system examples, tables, and charts to reinforce understanding, the book includes coverage of: How automobile and aircraft engines work Construction of steam power plants and refrigeration systems Gas and vapor power processes and systems Application of fluid statics, buoyancy, and stability, and the flow of fluids in pipes and machinery Heat transfer and thermal control of electronic components Keeping sight of the difference between system synthesis and analysis, this book contains numerous design problems. It would be useful for an intensive course geared toward readers who know basic physics and mathematics through ordinary differential equations but might not concentrate on thermal/fluids science much further. Written by experts in diverse fields ranging from mechanical, chemical, and electrical engineering to applied mathematics, this book is based on the assertion that engineers from all walks absolutely must understand energy processes and be able to quantify them.

Allan's Circuits Problems

By: Allan D. Kraus

One of the enduring trademarks of engineering students is their desire to learn through solving problems. Allan's Circuits Problems by Allan D. Kraus provides over 400 linear circuit analysis problems solved and tested by the author. These problems offer varying degrees of difficulty to encourage and challenge the student. This manual is ideal for self-study or as a supplement to any introductory electrical engineering text, such as Oxford University Press's popular Linear Circuit Analysis, Second Edition, (0-19-513666-7) by Raymond A. DeCarlo and Pen-Min Lin or Introduction to Electrical Engineering (0-19-513604-7) by Mulukutla S. Sarma This manual can also be used to prepare for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE)/ Engineer-in-Training (EIT) exam and the Professional Engineer (PE) exam.

Matrices for Engineers

By: Allan D. Kraus

Matrices for Engineers is designed to supply engineers and engineering students with a foundation in matrix theory and versatility in the manipulation of matrices. The book's approach provides the necessary material in a direct manner, with examples that illustrate each concept as it appears. The book emphasizes methodology and includes topics such as how to obtain the characteristic polynomial of a matrix; the factorizations of a coefficient matrix for ease of computation; and linear transformations from an intuitive and engineering point of view, in which conditions at one point in a system induce conditions at another. Indeed, it covers computational techniques and goes beyond matrix algebra to include matrix calculus. Perfect for self-study, Matrices for Engineers also functions as a supplement to Oxford University Press's popular Linear Circuit Analysis, Second Edition (0-19-513666-7), by Raymond A. DeCarlo and Pen-Min Lin or any introductory electrical engineering text, such as Introduction to Electrical Engineering (0-19-513604-7) by Mulukutla S. Sarma. It can also be used to help in preparing for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE)/Engineer-in-Training (EIT) exam and the Professional Engineer (PE) exam.
