A practical and accessible introductory textbook that enables
engineering students to design and optimize typical thermofluid
systems Engineering Design and Optimization of Thermofluid Systems
is designed to help students and professionals alike understand the
design and optimization techniques used to create complex
engineering systems that incorporate heat transfer, thermodynamics,
fluid dynamics, and mass transfer. Designed for thermal systems
design courses, this comprehensive textbook covers thermofluid
theory, practical applications, and established techniques for
improved performance, efficiency, and economy of thermofluid
systems. Students gain a solid understanding of best practices for
the design of pumps, compressors, heat exchangers, HVAC systems,
power generation systems, and more. Covering the material using a
pragmatic, student-friendly approach, the text begins by
introducing design, optimization, and engineering economics--with
emphasis on the importance of engineering optimization in
maximizing efficiency and minimizing cost. Subsequent chapters
review representative thermofluid systems and devices and discuss
basic mathematical models for describing thermofluid systems.
Moving on to system simulation, students work with the classical
calculus method, the Lagrange multiplier, canonical search methods,
and geometric programming. Throughout the text, examples and
practice problems integrate emerging industry technologies to show
students how key concepts are applied in the real world. This
well-balanced textbook: Integrates underlying thermofluid
principles, the fundamentals of engineering design, and a variety
of optimization methods Covers optimization techniques alongside
thermofluid system theory Provides readers best practices to follow
on-the-job when designing thermofluid systems Contains numerous
tables, figures, examples, and problem sets Emphasizing
optimization techniques more than any other thermofluid system
textbook available, Engineering Design and Optimization of
Thermofluid Systems is the ideal textbook for upper-level
undergraduate and graduate students and instructors in thermal
systems design courses, and a valuable reference for professional
mechanical engineers and researchers in the field.
