Industrial Combustion - Böcker

Rapid development in the field precipitated by the increased demand for clean burner systems has made the Industrial Burners Handbook into the field’s go-to resource. With this resource, bestselling author, editor, and combustion expert Charles Baukal, Jr. has put together a comprehensive reference dedicated to the design and applications of industrial burners. In addition to a solid introduction to combustion and burner fundamentals, an outstanding panel of contributing authors address all major burner types and explore a range of topics never before adequately covered in a handbook, including noise, burner controls, and physical modeling.

Despite the length of time it has been around, its importance, and vast amounts of research, combustion is still far from being completely understood. Issues regarding the environment, cost, and fuel consumption add further complexity, particularly in the process and power generation industries. Dedicated to advancing the art and science of industrial combustion, The John Zink Hamworthy Combustion Handbook, Second Edition covers the fundamental concepts and theory, design and operations, and important industry applications. Now in three volumes, this second edition of the bestselling handbook has been completely updated and expanded to provide an up-to-date look at industrial combustion.Under the leadership of Charles E. Baukal, Jr., top engineers and technologists from John Zink Hamworthy Combustion offer insights on a wide range of topics. Volume 1 introduces the interdisciplinary fundamentals, including chemistry, fluid flow, and heat transfer. A field manual for operators, engineers, and managers, Volume 2 looks at equipment design and operations, from testing to installation and maintenance to troubleshooting. Building on the first two volumes, Volume 3 examines industry applications such as process burners, boiler burners, process flares, thermal oxidizers, and vapor control.What’s New in This Edition - HighlightsExtensive updates and revisions throughout, reflecting new standards, energy sources, processes, and conservation concernsUpdated information on HPI/CPI industries, including alternative fuels, advanced refining techniques, emissions standards, and new technologiesNew practices in coal combustion, such as gasificationThe latest developments in cold-flow modeling, CFD-based modeling, and mathematical modelingGreater coverage of pollution emissions and NOx reduction techniquesNew material on combustion diagnostics, testing, and trainingExpanded coverage of flares, thermal oxidizers, and commercial and utility boiler burnersMore property data useful for the design and operation of combustion equipmentCoverage of metallurgy, refractories, blowers, and vapor control equipmentThis second edition continues to provide the comprehensive coverage, up-to-date information, and visual presentation that made the first edition an industry standard. Featuring color illustrations and photographs throughout, this definitive guide helps you broaden your understanding of industrial combustion to better meet the challenges of this dynamic field.For more information about the individual volumes in the The John Zink Hamworthy Combustion Handbook, Second Edition, see:Volume 1: FundamentalsVolume 2: Design and OperationsVolume 3: Applications
