Third Edition
By
Meherwan P Boyce, Fellow, American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME, USA) and Fellow, The Institute of Diesel and Gas Turbine Engineers, (IDGTE, U.K.), The Boyce Consultancy, Houston, TX, USA
Description
The Gas Turbine Engineering Handbook has been the standard for engineers involved in the design, selection, and operation of gas turbines.
This revision includes new case histories, the latest techniques, and new designs to comply with recently passed legislation. By keeping
the book up to date with new, emerging topics, Boyce ensures that this book will remain the standard and most widely used book in this
field.
The new Third Edition of the Gas Turbine Engineering Hand Book updates the book to cover the new generation of Advanced gas
Turbines. It examines the benefit and some of the major problems that have been encountered by these new turbines. The book keeps abreast
of the environmental changes and the industries answer to these new regulations. A new chapter on case histories has been added to enable
the engineer in the field to keep abreast of problems that are being encountered and the solutions that have resulted in solving them.
