Glassman's insightful introductory text emphasizes underlying physical and chemical principles, and encompasses engine technology, fire safety, materials synthesis, detonation phenomena, hydrocarbon fuel oxidation mechanisms, and environmental considerations. \"Combustion\" has been rewritten to integrate the text, figures, and appendixes, detailing available combustion codes, making it not only an excellent introductory text but also an important reference source for professionals in the field. It explains complex combustion phenomena with physical insight rather than extensive mathematics. It clarifies postulates in the text using extensive computational results in figures; lists modern combustion programs indicating usage and availability; and relates combustion concepts to practical applications.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50276240556305,"sku":"CIN0122858522G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0122858522.jpg?v=1751194847"},{"product_id":"combustion-book-irvin-glassman-9780120885732","title":"Combustion","description":"Combustion Engineering, a topic generally taught at the upper undergraduate and graduate level in most mechanical engineering programs, and many chemical engineering programs, is the study of rapid energy and mass transfer usually through the common physical phenomena of flame oxidation. It covers the physics and chemistry of this process and the engineering applications - from the generation of power such as the internal combustion automobile engine to the gas turbine engine. Renewed concerns about energy efficiency and fuel costs, along with continued concerns over toxic and particulate emissions have kept the interest in this vital area of engineering high and brought about new developments in both fundamental knowledge of flame and combustion physics as well as new technologies for flame and fuel control.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50344659091729,"sku":"CIN0120885735A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51694332608785,"sku":"CIN0120885735G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B007YXRCMK.jpg?v=1750972894"},{"product_id":"combustion-book-irvin-glassman-9780124079137","title":"Combustion","description":"Throughout its previous four editions, Combustion has made a very complex subject both enjoyable and understandable to its student readers and a pleasure for instructors to teach. With its clearly articulated physical and chemical processes of flame combustion and smooth, logical transitions to engineering applications, this new edition continues that tradition. Greatly expanded end-of-chapter problem sets and new areas of combustion engineering applications make it even easier for students to grasp the significance of combustion to a wide range of engineering practice, from transportation to energy generation to environmental impacts.    Combustion engineering is the study of rapid energy and mass transfer usually through the common physical phenomena of flame oxidation. It covers the physics and chemistry of this process and the engineering applications—including power generation in internal combustion automobile engines and gas turbine engines. Renewed concerns about energy efficiency and fuel costs, along with continued concerns over toxic and particulate emissions, make this a crucial area of engineering.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50479034368273,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50479034597649,"sku":"NGR9780124079137","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51801529712913,"sku":"GOR014407370","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53007123087633,"sku":"CIN012407913XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/012407913X.jpg?v=1750736515"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-irvin-glassman.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
