V. Ganapathy

Steam Generators and Waste Heat Boilers (eBook, ePUB)

For Process and Plant Engineers

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The text shows how design and performance calculations of complete steam generators and waste heat boilers of fire tube and water tube type may be done using basic heat transfer principles. It discusses recent developments in boiler technology, explores novel design ideas for improving efficiency, and lowering operating costs. In addition, it presents examples of problems with steam generators and HRSGs that are faced by plant engineers, along with solutions. Appendices provide heat transfer correlations in all three systems of units.

Rezensionen

"This book will surely help consultants and manufacturers in closing the "gaps" that they may have in thermal performance of oil / gas fired boilers and heat recovery steam generators. ...This is a "down to earth" book on the subject."
-S.Damodaran, Director, Thermodyne Technologies Private Limited, Chennai, India

"This book is an ideal reference for anyone involved in the heat transfer field. It is practical for use as a reference by plant personnel who need an answer "right now" but it is detailed enough to allow consulting engineers, process engineers, manufacturing engineers, designers and even students to get a comprehensive understanding of how the equipment works and how to make sure what they have designed is really in the best interest of the plant."
