VDI Heat Atlas, 2 Pts.

The VDI Heat Atlas offers tools and tables for calculating heat transport in technical equipment for the process industry, thermal power engineering and related subjects. The unsurpassed coverage of heat transfer highlights interrelationships between basic scientific methods, experimental techniques and model-based analysis, and their transfer to industrial and engineering applications. This makes the Atlas a powerful tool for the design and construction of heat exchangers and other heat and mass transfer problems in chemical engineering, mechanical engineering and related fields. For more than 50 years the Atlas has been an indispensable working reference for engineers dealing with heat transfer problems and applications. Compiled and edited by specialists, engineers and researchers of the German Engineers Society (VDI), this 2nd International edition includes approximately 50% new content.

Unique, comprehensive and authoritative reference book for engineering problems in design and construction of heat exchangers and other heat and mass transfer problems in chemical engineering, mechanical engineering and related fields Edited by specialists, engineers and researchers, within the German Engineers Society (VDI) Contains data and applicable methods valid all over the world for every relevant technical or industrial application in process industry and thermal power engineering
