The contributing authors  are some of the world leaders in research and education on energy and  environmental topics. The coverage is worth noting for its breadth and  depth. The book begins with the latest trends in applied  thermodynamics: the methods of exergy analysis, entropy generation  minimization and thermoeconomics. It continues with the most modern  developments in energy processing and conservation techniques: heat  transfer augmentation devices, inverse thermal design, combustion and  heat exchangers for environmental systems. The environmental impact of  energy systems is documented in a diversity of applications such as  the flow of hazardous waste through cracks and porous media, thermally  induced flows through coastal waters near power plants, and lake  ecology in the vicinity of pumped storage systems. The book outlines  new research directions such as the manufacturing of novel materials  from solid waste, advances in radiative transport, the measurement of  convective heat transfer in gas turbines and environmentally  acceptable refrigerants. \u003cbr\u003e  The book is rich in engineering design data that make a concrete  statement on topics of world wide interest, e.g., toxic emissions, the  depletion of energy resources, global environmental change (global  warming), and future trends in the power generation industries. \u003cbr\u003e  Written by leaders in research and education, this book is an  excellent text or supplement for undergraduate and graduate courses on  energy engineering and environmental science.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401059435\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-4593-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 265\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358899368076,"sku":"9789401059435","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401059435.jpg?v=1775678827","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401059435","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
