Fuels and Combustion is a systematic and comprehensive work on a subject that forms an integral part of the undergraduate degree courses in Chemical, Mechanical, Metallurgical and Aeronautical Engineering. While emphasizing the fundamental principles, the book provides a balanced treatment of energy resources, processing of fuels, fundamentals of combustion and combustion appliances. The book takes a different approach by dealing with the topics in an Indian context. The third edition of the book has a completely new introduction, layout and design; new statistics have been added to provide up-to-date information.
