An accessible and applicable guide to quantitative problem solving in
vacuum technology, this book is aimed at newcomers, students and the
experienced practitioner. It contains essential information and
worked examples for those using vacuum technology in chemical
applications and who are involved in the design and operation of
vacuum equipment.
Using step-by-step solutions of example calculations and
formulae, "Vacuum Technology: Calculations in Chemistry" sets out to
encourage readers to quantify their own systems so that they can
ensure efficient operation and fault finding. Whilst emphasizing the
use of appropriate units in calculations and using well-known
expressions in vacuum technology throughout, the book includes:
--formulae necessary for quantitative vacuum technology
--commonly required data for common gases in tabulated form
--schematic diagrams of systems and layouts
This book is certain to be a confidence-inspiring publication for
use in both research and industry. TOC:Principles / Gas Flow / Pumps and Pumping Systems / Gas Sources and
