Thermal Energy Systems Design and Analysis
Auteur : Penoncello Steven G.
Before components are purchased and a thermal energy system is built, the effective engineer must first solve the equations representing the mathematical model of the system. Having a working mathematical model based on physics and equipment performance information is crucial to finding a system?s operating point. Thermal Energy Systems: Design and Analysis offers a fundamental working knowledge of the analysis and design of thermal-fluid energy systems, enabling users to effectively formulate, optimize, and test their own design projects.
Providing an understanding of the basic concepts of simulation and optimization, and introducing simulation and optimization techniques that can be applied to a system model, this text covers the basic foundations of thermal-fluid system analysis and design. It addresses hydraulic systems, energy systems, system simulation, and system optimization. In addition, it incorporates both SI and English units, and builds current state-of-the-art computer modeling skills throughout the book.
Topics covered include:
- Review of thermal engineering concepts
- Engineering economics principles
- Application of conservation and balance laws
- Review of fluid flow fundamentals
- Minor losses
- Series and parallel pipe networks
- Economic pipe diameter
- Pump performance and selection
- Cavitation
