Mechanical Engineering Science provides an introduction to the basic science and mechanics required by mechanical engineering students in their studies; it links in with and complements the authors' companion volume Applied Mechanics. This edition of a well-known classic text has been completely updated and includes new material giving extended coverage of power generation and prime movers as well as the topical subjects of renewable energy sources, satellites and emission of pollutants.
In general, sections of the text and the lists of problems have been revised and the drawings improved throughout. In particular, the chapter on Aircraft and Rockets has been re-written in parts and expanded; this chapter is intended to be an introduction to the topics of jet and propeller-driven aircraft, helicopters and rockets, having the advantage of bringing together in the exercises the subjects of statics and dynamics as well as thermo- and gas-dynamics with fluid flow. Some descriptive work on propulsion systems and aerodynamics has been included to support the elementary basic, mechanics. The treatment of the topic Gravitation and Satellites has also been marginally increased. To contain the size of the book the chapters on Experimental Methods and Fluid in Motion have been slightly curtailed.
