Coabsorbent and Thermal Recovery Compression Heat Pumping Technologies (Heat and Mass Transfer)
by Mihail-Dan Staicovici
This book introduces two of the most exciting heat pumping technologies, the coabsorbent and the thermal recovery (mechanical vapor) compression, characterized by a high potential in primary energy savings and environmental protection. New cycles with potential applications of nontruncated, truncated, hybrid truncated, and multi-effect coabsorbent types are introduced in this work. Thermal-to-work recovery compression (TWRC) is the first of two particular methods explored here, including how su...

Flood Prevention and Remediation
Human settlements have grown near watercourses since ancient times. Water supply, irrigation, navigation, wastewater conveyance and city defense are some of the uses that were responsible for this choice. Even floods played an important role, favoring the soil fertilization. Man-made actions, however, especially in urban watersheds, significantly modify the natural water cycle, increasing the magnitude of floods and their potential damages. Consequently, flood damages are one of the most importa...
Dam Sector Protection and Homeland Security (Homeland Security)
by Frank R. Spellman
The sixth of a new, well-received and highly acclaimed series on critical infrastructure and homeland security, Dam Protection and Homeland Security is a reference source that is designed to serve and advise U.S. project designers, engineers, managers, superintendents and supervisors of dams, navigation locks, levees, dikes, hurricane barriers, mine tailings and other industrial waste impoundments, and other similar water retention and water control facilities who want quick answers to complicat...
Numerical Modelling of Hydrodynamics for Water Resources
Overland flow modelling has been an active field of research for some years, but developments in numerical methods and computational resources have recently accelerated progress, producing models for different geometries and types of flows, such as simulations of canal and river networks. Flow in canals has traditionally been described using

Stromungsmechanik (Grundlagen Und Fortschritte Der Ingenieurwissenschaften)
by Heinz Herwig
Probleme der Stroemungsmechanik sollen immer haufiger mit Computerprogrammen geloest werden. Dies setzt voraus, dass die Physik des Problems verstanden ist. Der Autor tragt zum grundlegenden Verstandnis bei, indem er die Physik der Stroemungsformen anschaulich darstellt. Mathematische Grundgleichungen, wie die Navier-Stokes-Gleichungen und den Energiesatz, stellt er in allgemeiner Form bereit und erlautert deren mathematische Bedeutung. Konsequent leitet er die physikalisch/mathematische Modelli...
