A heat physicists' manual.

Aide-mémoire du thermicien. Edition 1997.

Type of monograph: Book, Guide/Handbook

Summary

This manual employs the international system of units (SI) and the main unit conversion tables, including those used in English-speaking countries, enabling heat physicists, maintenance engineers and electricians to use both systems and to perform fast checking of "size orders." Extract from the table of contents: general information (units, characteristic adimensional numbers, general chemistry elements, thermodynamics elements, fluid mechanics and heat transfer); physical properties of bodies (pure bodies, secondary refrigerant and organic fluids, materials, natural products); heat production (combustion theory, properties of fuels, solar radiation, electrothermal techniques, combustion of pure oxygen or oxygen-enriched air); use of heat (heat exchangers, drying, heating of premises, air conditioning, heat pump,use of solar energy); analysis and measurements (temperature, flow, pressure, analysis of gases); heat-resistant and insulating materials.
