In this book, prominent Russian Engineer Yuriy I. Khavkin compares historical combustion models for gas turbines with a discussion of modern combustion chambers. These models-gas turbines, combustion chambers, steam boilers, and other combustion applications-are compared through a series of examples.
Readers will learn to:
-
understand different types of combustion devices
-
calculate size and combustion efficiency
-
review new types of flame tube heat protection with applications
-
design low NOx combustion chambers
-
reduce the effort necessary to create a new combustion chamber
-
Combustion System Design is targeted for the mechanical engineer with a specialty in gas turbines or boilers. Chemical Engineers and gas turbine specialists also will find it very helpful
