Informationen zum Autor Frank E. Jones is an independent consultant in the Washington D.C. area. For many years he was a physicist with the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He is the author of over 75 technical publications, three books and holds several measurement-related patents. Klappentext This book covers applications and techniques of flow measurement. The treatment of topics is definitive, and the information provided is designed to be immediately useful to those involved in flow measurement. Tables are provided for such commonly encountered variables as the saturation vapor pressure of water; the composition of dry air; the compressibility factor for air; air-free and air-saturated water density; viscosity of dry air, nitrogen, and other gases; and heat/specific volume ratios for dry air, water vapor, and moist air. Zusammenfassung Covers the advances in the analysis and design of advanced electromechanical systems. This work provides an understanding of the underpinnings of integrated technologies and develops a modern picture of electromechanical engineering using bedrock fundamentals. It covers topics including AC and DC motors and generators, and transducers and sensors.
