Master the steam and ammonia properties with a trusted reference for engineers and students.
This edition compiles experimental data, general theory, and practical tables to support accurate calculations in thermodynamics and engineering design. It covers both the thermal properties of steam and the behavior of ammonia, using diagrams and worked examples to illustrate key concepts.
The book presents reliable data and methods for applying the Clausius and Clapeyron relations, helping users relate pressure, temperature, and specific heat across saturated and superheated states. It also includes a set of tables and diagrams intended to aid quick reference and problem solving in real-world applications.
- Tables for saturated and superheated steam, as well as liquid ammonia and related properties
- Diagrams that serve as substitutes for some tables in common problems
- Explanations of notation, units, and constant values used throughout
- Illustrative examples to demonstrate practical use of the data
Ideal for students and professionals involved in thermodynamics, steam generation, refrigeration, and chemical processing.
