Advances in Combustion Technology
About this book
This edited volume on combustion technology covers recent developments and provides a broad perspective of the key challenges in this emerging field. Divided into two sections, the first one covers micro-combustion systems, hydrogen combustors, combustion systems for gas turbines and IC engines, coal combustors for power plants and gasifier systems. The second section focusses on combustion systems pertaining to aerospace including supersonic combustors, rocket engines and gel propellant combustion. Issues related to energy producing devices in power generation, process industries and aerospace vehicles and efficient and eco-friendly combustion technologies are also explained.
Features:
- Provides comprehensive coverage of recent advances in combustion technology
- Explains definite concepts about the design and development in combustion systems
- Captures developments relevant for the aerospace area including gel propellant, aluminium-based propellants, gasification and gas turbines
- Aims to introduce the combustion system in different industries
- Expounds novel combustion systems with reference to pertinent renewable technologies
This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in chemical, mechanical and aerospace engineering, energy and environmental engineering, and thermal engineering. This book is also aimed at practicing engineers and decision makers in industry and research labs, and petroleum utilization.
