The Coen & Hamworthy Combustion Handbook: Fundamentals for Power, Marine & Industrial Applications
Published:
March 25, 2013
Editor(s):
Stephen Londerville; Charles E. Baukal Jr.
The rigorous treatment of combustion can be so complex that the kinetic variables, fluid turbulence factors, luminosity, and other factors cannot be defined well enough to find realistic solutions. Simplifying the processes, The Coen & Hamworthy Combustion Handbook provides practical guidance …
