Analytic combustion: with thermodynamics, chemical kinetics and mass transfer
By: Date, Anil Waman
Language: English Publisher: Singapore Springer c2020Edition: 2nd edDescription: xxi, 405p.; 23cmISBN: 9789811518553Subject(s): Physical chemistry | Thermochemistry | Thermodynamics | Combustion | Chemical kinetics | Droplet combustion | Particle combustionDDC classification: 541.361 DAT/A Online resources: Publisher's URL Summary: This book is intended to serve as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students as well as professionals engaged in application of thermo-fluid science to the study of combustion. The relevant thermo-chemistry and thermo-physical data required for this study are provided in the 6 appendices along with appropriate curve-fit coefficients. To facilitate gradual learning, two chapters are devoted to thermodynamics of pure and gaseous mixture substances, followed by one chapter each on chemical equilibrium and chemical kinetics. This material when coupled with a dedicated chapter on understanding of equations governing transport of momentum, heat and mass in the presence of chemical reactions provides adequate grounding to undertake analysis of practical combustion equipment, of premixed and diffusion flames as well as of solid particle and liquid droplet combustion. The learnings from the aforementioned chapters are taken to a uniquely strong chapter on application case studies, some of which have special relevance for developing countries.
