Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Turbomachinery, Eighth Edition is the leading turbomachinery book with its balanced coverage of theory and application. Starting with background principles in fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, this updated edition goes on to discuss axial flow turbines and compressors, centrifugal pumps, fans, and compressors, and radial flow gas turbines, hydraulic turbines, and wind turbines. Used as a core text in senior undergraduate and graduate level courses, this book will also appeal to professional engineers in the aerospace, global power, oil & gas, and other industries who are involved in the design and operation of turbomachines.Provides the most comprehensive coverage of turbomachinery fundamentals of any text in the fieldExamines, through the laws of fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, the means by which energy transfer is achieved in the chief types of turbomachines, together with the differing behavior of individual types in operationDiscusses important aspects concerning the criteria of blade selection and blade manufacture, control methods for regulating power output and rotor speed, and performance testingIncludes coverage of public and environmental issues, which are becoming increasingly important as they can affect the development of wind turbinesOnline teaching ancillaries include a fully updated solutions manual and image bank
