Introduction to Engineering Experimentation

Introduction to Engineering Experimentation
English | ISBN: 0131742760 | edition 2009 | PDF | 480 pages | 7,3 mb

An up-to-date, practical introduction to engineering experimentation. Introduction to Engineering Experimentation, 3E introduces many topics that engineers need to master in order to plan, design, and document a successful experiment or measurement system. The text offers a practical approach with current examples and thorough discussions of key topics, including those often ignored or merely touched upon by other texts, such as modern computerized data acquisition systems, electrical output measuring devices, and in-depth coverage of experimental uncertainty analysis.



Stationary Fuel Cells: An Overview

Kerry-Ann Adamson, "Stationary Fuel Cells: An Overview"
English | 2007-09-17 | ISBN: 0080451187 | 146 pages | PDF | 2 MB

Fuel cells are, according to some, the answer to the future problems of energy resources. Rather than solve those problems alone, they will doubtless form part of a growing group of alternative energy sources such as wind, tidal, photovoltaic and nuclear which will reduce our dependence on oil. Stationary fuel cells are the kind used mainly for home, office and large-scale power plants.

If you need a current overview of stationary fuel cells, their status and applications, market developments, market players, economics and future potential, this is where to look. This is NOT an engineering textbook: it is designed to provide potential adopters of fuel cells with the information needed to make sensible decisions. As such it is unique.

Elementary Statistics: Picturing the World, 5th Edition

Ron Larson, "Elementary Statistics: Picturing the World, 5th Edition" 
2012 | ISBN-10: 0321693620 | PDF | 786 pages | 15,8 MB


Elementary Statistics: Picturing the World, Fifth Edition, offers our most accessible approach to statistics—with more than 750 graphical displays that illustrate data, readers are able to visualize key statistical concepts immediately. Adhering to the philosophy that students learn best by doing, this book relies heavily on examples–25% of the examples and exercises are new for this edition. Larson and Farber continue to demonstrate that statistics is all around us and that it’s easy to understand.

This text provides thorough coverage of design principles for distillation processes. It contains an up-to-date presentation of process and equipment design procedures, highlights limitations of some design methods, and offers guidance on how to overcome them.




Fundamentals of Engineering Economics

Chan S. Park, "Fundamentals of Engineering Economics" 
ISBN: 0130307912 | edition 2003 | PDF | 552 pages | 44 mb


New from the author of the best-selling Contemporary Engineering Economics book, Fundamentals of Engineering Economics offers concise, but in-depth coverage of all fundamental topics of Engineering Economics. A four-part organization outlines an understanding of money and its management, how to evaluate business and engineering assets, .the development of project cash flows, and special topics in engineering economics.


Green Separation Processes: Fundamentals and Applications

Green Separation Processes: Fundamentals and Applications by Carlos A. M. Afonso 
Publisher: Wiley-VCH; 1 edition (September 5, 2005) | ISBN: 3527309853 | Pages: 383 | PDF | 4.24 MB

This timely book is the first to provide a comprehensive overview of all important aspects of this modern technology with the focus on the "green aspect". The expert authors present everything from reactions without solvents to nanostructures for separation methods, from combinatorial chemistry on solid phase to dendrimers. The result is a ready reference packed full of valuable facts on the latest developments in the field - high-quality information otherwise widely spread throughout articles and reviews.


Engineering Fluid Mechanics

"Engineering Fluid Mechanics" by T. Al-Shemmeri 
BoBoCoAe, TAS & Ventus Publishing ApS | 2012 | ISBN: 8740301144 9788740301144 | 140 pages | PDF | 5 MB


The book tackles the many laws and principles in a very clear and easy way describing the pertinent parameters that control the particular situation. The book is complimented by many worked examples, tutorial problems to help students get further practice in problem solving, a typical examination paper, and finally presents a case study of a typical hydropower plant. 

Fluid Mechanics is an essential subject in the study of the behaviour of fluids equally when at rest and when in motion whether a house hold application such as the mains water supply, the natural gas supply or industrial such as the design of the body of an automotive car, airplane, train or the provision of electricity from a hydropower plant. 


Non-Newtonian Flow: Fundamentals and Engineering Applications

Non-Newtonian Flow: Fundamentals and Engineering Applications by R. P. Chhabra 
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann (October 13, 1999) | ISBN: 0750637706 | Pages: 436 | PDF | 3.02 MB

Non-Newtonian materials are encountered in virtually all of the chemical and process industries and a full understanding of their nature and flow characteristics is an essential requirement for engineers and scientists involved in their formulation and handling. This book will bridge the gap between much of the highly theoretical and mathematically complex work of the rheologist and the practical needs of those who have to design and operate plants in which these materials are handled and processed. At the same time, numerous references are included for the benefit of those who need to delve more deeply into the subject.

The starting point for any work on non-newtonian fluids is their characterisation over the range of conditions to which they are likely to be subjected during manufacture or utilisation, and this topic is treated early on in the book in a chapter commissioned from an expert in the field of rheological measurements. Coverage of topics is extensive and this book offers a unique and rich selection of material including the flow of single phase and multiphase mixtures in pipes, in packed and fluidised bed systems, heat and mass transfer in boundary layers and in simple duct flows, and mixing etc.
