Separation Process Engineering, Fifth Edition is a thorough update of the leading textbook for undergraduate chemical engineering core courses in separation methods or in mass transfer and separations. Phillip K. Wankat's proven approach combines quantitative rigor with a tutorial presentation guided by educational principles and the needs of today's learners. Wankat covers all industrially important purification methods in detail, including newer separation methods largely absent from older texts. Since distillation remains central to most process industries, Wankat thoroughly addresses flash distillation, batch and continuous distillation, multicomponent distillation, extractive and azeotropic distillation, and other techniques, adding valuable new coverage of column flash and cyclic distillation. Readers will also find detailed coverage of other traditional separation methods, including liquid-liquid extraction, absorption, and stripping. The Fifth Edition contains an entirely new c

Acquire complete knowledge of the basics of air-breathing turbomachinery with this hands-on practical text. This updated new edition for students in mechanical and aerospace engineering discusses the role of entropy in assessing machine performance, provides a review of flow structures, and includes an applied review of boundary layer principles. New coverage describes approaches used to smooth initial design geometry into a continuous flow path, the development of design methods associated with the flow over blade shape (cascades loss theory) and annular type flows, as well as a discussion of the mechanisms for the setting of shaft speed. This essential text is also fully supported by over 200 figures, numerous examples, and homework problems, many of which have been revised for this edition.

Light scattering is one of the most well-studied phenomena in nature. It occupies a central place in optical physics, and plays a key role in multiple fields of science and engineering. This volume presents a comprehensive introduction to the subject. For the first time, the authors bring together in a self-contained and systematic manner, the physical concepts and mathematical tools that are used in the modern theory of light scattering and transport, presenting them in a clear, accessible style. The power of these tools is demonstrated by a framework that links various aspects of the subject: scattering theory to radiative transport, radiative transport to diffusion, and field correlations to the statistics of speckle patterns. For graduate students and researchers in optical physics and optical engineering, this book is an invaluable resource on the interaction of light with complex media and the theory of light scattering in disordered and complex systems.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles of materials characterization and metrology. Based on several decades of teaching experience, it includes many worked examples, questi

●The book is suitable for both electrical engineering and non-electrical engineering students (e.g., Mechanical Engineering students).●Coverage of both electric machines and power electronics is integrated in one volume.

●Thorough analysis and development based on fundamental principles. Students develop understanding of core concepts and learn that the operation of microwave circuits and devices can be explained through the use of circuit theory, Maxwell's equations, and related fundamentals. See Wilkinson divider operation derived from basic circuit and transmission line theory.●Many examples cover both theory and design. Student can see how typical problems are solved, how practical designs are carried out, and how component designs perform. The availability of realistic and thorough examples reinforces subject matter. See Example 7.7 that involves the design of a coupled line coupler on a lossy substrate. The design procedure is illustrated, and the response of the coupler is obtained using a CAD package.●Many problems cover both theory and design. Problems test the student's understanding of the material and offer the opportunity for in-depth design and analysis of practical components. Problems o

This unique introduction to the foundational concepts of cyber-physical systems (CPS) describes key design principles and emerging research trends in detail. Several interdisciplinary applications are covered, with a focus on the wide-area management of infrastructures including electric power systems, air transportation networks, and health care systems. Design, control and optimization of cyber-physical infrastructures are discussed, addressing security and privacy issues of networked CPS, presenting graph-theoretic and numerical approaches to CPS evaluation and monitoring, and providing readers with the knowledge needed to operate CPS in a reliable, efficient, and secure manner. Exercises are included. This is an ideal resource for researchers and graduate students in electrical engineering and computer science, as well as for practitioners using cyber-physical systems in aerospace and automotive engineering, medical technology, and large-scale infrastructure operations.

This new text integrates fundamental theory with modern computational tools such as EES, MATLAB®, and FEHT to equip students with the essential tools for designing and optimizing real-world systems and the skills needed to become effective practicing engineers. Real engineering problems are illustrated and solved in a clear step-by-step manner. Starting from first principles, derivations are tailored to be accessible to undergraduates by separating the formulation and analysis from the solution and exploration steps to encourage a deep and practical understanding. Numerous exercises are provided for homework and self-study and include standard hand calculations as well as more advanced project-focused problems for the practice and application of computational tools. Appendices include reference tables for thermophysical properties and answers to selected homework problems from the book. Complete with an online package of guidance documents on EES, MATLAB®, and FEHT software, sample cod

This comprehensive textbook highlights the fundamental concepts and design principles related to water and wastewater engineering. Problems and issues arising from the lack of sustainable conventional treatment practices and potential methods for resolving problems are discussed in detail. The book starts with an introduction to water resources and the need for water and wastewater treatment, followed by evaluation of water demand in terms of quantity and quality. Mass transfer and transformation processes that are necessary for understanding the complexity of water pollution issues and treatment processes are discussed in detail. Pedagogical features include learning objectives, chapter-wise study outlines, detailed solutions to important problems and self-evaluation exercises with answers. Case studies for specific water treatment requirements are provided to enable the students to choose and apply only relevant treatment processes in their design.
