Pollution Prevention and Control: Part II Material and Energy Balances

Linfield C. Brown , Paul Mac Berthouex

This book explains the two fundamental tools for process analysis and design - the material balance and the energy balance. A material balance is needed for virtually every pollution prevention and control problem. A material balance and an energy balance are needed when accounting for the use and flow of energy. Twenty five case studies and 85 examples explain how these tools are used in a variety of air, water, wastewater, and solid waste management problems. Students will learn about these areas of engineering while mastering the design tools, and be introduced to some fundamental concepts for chemical and biological reactions, material separations, and economic evaluations.

Thermal Modelling of Electric Machines

Dr Moez Hadj Kacem , Dr Souhir Tounsi , Pr Rafik Neji

Overheated electric machines have a considerable impact on the active parts that constitute their life span. This is why it is important to know the distribution of temperatures that they undergo. Besides, the association of machines with the static converters became classic but contributes to the increase of losses. It is therefore just as important to determine their contribution to the system’s warming-up.
The presented work describes an electric, magnetic and thermal analysis of a synchronous motor to permanent magnet and intended axial flux to cooling using the node method are elaborated. Results of simulations served to us validate models in various working conditions.

Electric Drive Systems and Operation

Valery Vodovozov

This book is intended primarily for the secondary-level and university-level learners of an electromechanical profile, including the bachelor and master students majored in electrical engineering and mechatronics. It will help also technicians and engineers of respective specialities.
If you have completed the basics of electricity, electronics, mechanics, and computer science, the book will guide you in appreciation of applications built on the basis of electrical motors. In addition, you will know many electromechanical products and determine their important differences.

Electrical Power

W.J. R. H. Pooler

The book defines the units of electrical quantities from first principles. Methods are demonstrated for calculating voltage, current, power, impedances and magnetic forces in dc and ac circuits and in machines and other electrical plant. The vector representation of ac quantities is explained. Typical arrangements of electrical power networks are described. Methods for calculating fault currents and for the automatic isolation of faulty equipment are described.

Foundation of Physics for Scientists and Engineers Volume I: Mechanics, Heat and Sound

Ali R. Fazely

The genesis behind writing a textbook in calculus-based physics stemmed from the fact that most existing textbooks are too detailed and voluminous. In writing this book, the author has minimized inconsequential details and only concentrated on physics concepts. The balance among different components of the book was also paramount. The author has avoided citing too many unwarranted examples and homework problems which create a fatigue environment for the student. This book provides an excellent foundation in physics for the students majoring in science and engineering.

Electricity and Magnetism

Sunil Kumar Sing

A science textbook about electricity and magnetism that contains subjects on the theory of relativity, circuit laws, laws on electricity and magnetism, magnetic fields, motion, cyclotron, magnetic force and conductors.

Beginning PHP 6, Apache, MySQL 6 Web Development

By, Timothy Boronczyk

PHP, Apache, and MySQL are the three key open source technologies that form the basis for most active Web servers. This book takes you step by step through understanding each – using it and combining it with the other two on both Linux and Windows servers.

This book will guide you through creating your own sites using the open source AMP model. You'll learn to install PHP, Apache, and MySQL. Then you'll create PHP Web pages, including database management and security. Finally, you'll discover how to integrate your work with e-commerce and other technologies. By building different types of Web sites, you will progress from setting up simple database tables to tapping the full potential of PHP, Apache, and MySQL.

When you're finished, you will be able to create well-designed, dynamic Web sites using open source tools.
