A Textbook of Thermal Engineering By R.S. Khurmi and J.K. Gupta

A Textbook of Thermal Engineering (S.I. Units) By R.S. Khurmi and J.K. Gupta

A must-read for all students of Mechanical Engineering, encompassing all theories of the subject across nearly 900 pages of exhaustive topical coverage. Topics such as general thermodynamic relations and variable specific heat, along with impulse and reaction turbines and air compressors, are dealt with in particular detail, and the text is backed throughout by numerous solved examples and chapter-end exercises to reinforce each concept as it's introduced.

Topics commonly covered include:

• Properties of perfect gases and thermodynamic processes

• Entropy of perfect gases and steam

• Kinetic theory of gases and thermodynamic air cycles

• Formation and properties of steam

• Fuels and combustion

• Steam boilers, mountings, accessories, and draught

• Steam engines (simple and compound) and steam condensers

• Steam nozzles and impulse/reaction turbines

• Internal combustion engines and their testing

• Reciprocating and rotary air compressors, gas turbines

• Heat transfer, air refrigeration, and psychrometry

Key features:

• Comprehensive, nearly 900-page treatment spanning steam, IC engines, turbines, compressors, and refrigeration in one volume

• Numerous solved examples and chapter-end exercises throughout

• Detailed treatment of general thermodynamic relations and variable specific heat

• Long-established as a standard reference for mechanical engineering coursework

• Companion volume to the same authors' widely used machine design and refrigeration texts

Perfect for:

• Mechanical engineering undergraduates studying thermodynamics and thermal engineering

• Students preparing for UPSC Engineering Services and AMIE examinations

• Diploma-level mechanical engineering students

• Practicing engineers needing a comprehensive thermal engineering reference
