Description
After the introductory chapters in each volume, the material in each chapter starts out with definitions and engineering formulas, applies
these to the individual gases, and proceeds to advanced theory at the molecular level. The formulas and theory are illustrated with
examples throughout. Uncertainty, in both measurement and prediction, is a recurring theme throughout both volumes.
The engineering
formulas are suited to engineering and science students at the undergraduate level. The advanced theory is for professionals and students
at the graduate level. The Handbook will survey the state of the art from 1921 to the present, pointing out gaps in our present knowledge.
Audience
Chemists and Chemical Engineers; Mechanical Engineers; Physicists; Acousticians; Meteorologists; Aerospace engineers; Liquefied natural gas industry. Engineering and Science Students.
