This book is designed to serve senior-level engineering students taking a capstone design course in fluid and thermal systems design. It is built from the ground up with the needs and interests of practicing engineers in mind; the emphasis is on practical applications. The book begins with a discussion of design methodology, including the process of bidding to obtain a project, and project management techniques. The text continues with an introductory overview of fluid thermal systems (a pump and pimping system, a household air conditioner, a baseboard heater, a water slide, and a vacuum cleaner are among the examples given), and a review of the properties of fluids and the equations of fluid mechanics. The text then offers an in-depth discussion of piping systems, including the economics of pipe size selection. Janna examines pumps (including net positive suction head considerations) and piping systems. He provides the reader with the ability to design an entire system for moving fluids that is efficient and cost-effective. Next, the book provides a review of basic heat transfer principles, and the analysis of heat exchangers, including double pipe, shell and tube, plate and frame cross flow heat exchangers. Design considerations for these exchangers are also discussed. The text concludes with a chapter (10) of term projects that may be undertaken by teams of students.
Review of "Design of Fluid Thermal Systems
| Customer Rating: | | Above Average review of thermal fluid fundamentals. Recommended for the beginning pipeline engineer. |
An Excellent Handbook
| Customer Rating: | | This book is an exceptional follow up to the fluid dynamics publication by the same author. The material in this text is presented in a very straightforward manner which any mechanical engineer should be able to comprehend and apply. This is a must have for the engineer who wishes to design functional fluid thermal systems. This is my second copy. |
A really practical design book for engineer
| Customer Rating: | | The content of this book is easily read for me!! It contains almost all practical equations and criteria in the field of thermal system design. The most important point I like the book is that it has really help me a lot with my work in many times. It is so suit to asist engineers in preliminary design of fluid thermal system. |
Outstanding Book
| Customer Rating: | | This is an outstanding book. The text is very readable, and the material very practicle. This book could be picked up, read briefly, and applied to real world problems without any further instruction. |
Lacking of explanation through out the book.
| Customer Rating: | | The exercises do not have the answer for students to check their work. In the examples showed in the calculation part, there are no unit show and make the students confusing on how the calculation work. For example, in ideal gas equaltion, the book shows pv = mrt which m stands for mass. It is confusing. The rest of the book is okay but it needs to be edited again. |
