Turbines

In the light of the extensive debate surrounding the economics of scale of wind turbines, this timely work examines the engineering implications of developing lightweight compliant designs. Through the development of a unique modelling approach, the authors quantify the weight and cost of a diverse ... More

This is a guide for practising engineers looking to access information on the analysis, design, operation and testing of turbomachinery. This edition has six additional chapters and discusses advances in fluid mechanics of turbomachinery and cooling challenges for increasing gas temperatures.Buildin... More
