Combustion Engineering and Gas Utilisation


Overview

Combustion Engineering & Gas Utilisation is a practical guide to sound engineering practice for engineers from industry and commerce responsible for the selection, installation, designing and maintenance of efficient and safe gas fired heating equipment. Starting from the basic principles of combustion, this book describes the whole range of non-domestic gas fired equipment encountered in industrial and commercial premises. Burner systems, gas controls and air gas ratio equipment are considered. Individual chapters focus on gas supply, electrical power generation including ""combined heat and power"", and on all aspects of instrumentation and measurement. Safety is a theme running throughout the book with appropriate references to relevant standards and codes of practice.
