Dynamics of Combustion Systems

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Combustion systems are confined fields of compressible fluids where exothermic processes of combustion take place, subject to boundary conditions imposed at its borders. The subject of Dynamics of Combustion Systems is presented in three parts: Part 1. Exothermicity - considering the thermodynamic effects due to evolution of exothermic energy in a combustion system - Part 2. Field- exposing the dynamic properties of flow fields where the exothermic energy is deposited - Part 3. Explosions - revealing the dynamic features of fields and fronts due to rapid deposition of exothermic energy.

Rezensionen

From the reviews: "This book is a nice description and a complete survey of combustion systems where exothermic processes take place. It is written by a specialist of this field. ... Many figures or photographs illustrate the book in a nice way. ... the book is mainly devoted to physicists and engineers. They will find here some interesting values of the parameters which are involved in combustion devices such as engines. ... ends with more than twenty pages of classical or historical references." (Alain Brillard, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1132 (10), 2008)
