Présentation de l'éditeur
For many years the author has given lectures supplementing the text-books used as a basis for a course in heat engineering. His aim in preparing this book has been to bring together his various notes with statements of the investigations and writings of others to make a complete treatment of the important phases of this subject. In doing this he has given credit to the authors and investigators quoted. Certain of the original sources have been quoted so that the student may learn the use of references. It is hoped that many studying this book wiU refer to these original papers. The work presupposes a course in theoretical thermodynamics such as that given in the treatises of Wood, Peabody orG oodenough. Because of the difference in symbols, nomenclature or point of view of various authors and to serve for reference or for the derivation of formulsB used in the text, the first chapter of this book has been written. It is not intended that this chapter shall be used as a part of the course for it is an outline only of the thermodynamic theory. It should be used to give a review of the subject or as a basis for the formulse used. In shaping this chapter the author has been guided by his experience in teaching this subject from many texts. The treatment of availability and entropy has been based on the excellent work on thermodynamics by Goodenough. Numerical problems have been solved at various points in the text to illustrate the principles of the subject and to apply them to actual engineering work. The problems have been solved in detail to give the student one manner of attack as well as an order for the arrangement of computations for clearness. Unless the student can apply the various formula and theories he has failed to attain that for which this book was written. In addition to the problems and solutions a series of questions on the various topics of t
