Description:
This complete revision of Volume 1 builds upon Ernest E. Ludwigs classic text to further enhance its use as a chemical engineering process design manual of methods and proven fundamentals. This new edition includes important supplemental mechanical and related data, nomographs and charts. Also included within are improved techniques and fundamental methodologies, to guide the engineer in designing process equipment and applying chemical processes to properly detailed equipment. This newly Knovelized edition has been updated with 13 Equation Plotter Tables covering Density of Liquids, Viscosity of Gases, Viscosity of Liquids, Heat Capacity of Gases, Thermal Conductivity of Gases, Thermal Conductivity of Inorganic Liquids and Solids, Vapor Pressures of Selected Organic Compounds, Enthalpy of Vaporization, Standard Enthalpy of Formation, Standard Gibbs Free Energy of Formation, Solubility of Seawater, Solubility of Organic Compounds in Water as a Function of Temperature, and Solubility of Naphthenes in Saltwater data. Also added were 11 Digitized Graphs covering subjects such as Moody or "regular" fanning friction factors for any kind and size of pipe, Performance of turbine type centrifugal pump, Drag coefficients for spheres, disks, and cylinders in any fluid, Temperature entrainment ratio curve, etc.
