DESCRIPTION:
Carl Yaws, Ph.D., is a professor of chemical engineering at Lamar University. He has extensive industrial experience in process evaluation research, development, and design at laboratory, pilot plant, and production levels. He has worked for Exxon, Ethyl, and Texas Instruments. . The author of 24 books, he holds several patents and has published more than 3
Applications to Engineering and All the Sciences: OBTAIN CRITICAL VALUES for temperature and pressure for design or operation of compressors and turbines; FIND HEAT CAPACITY DATA for heat exchangers; ACCURATELY DESIGN AND SAFELY OPERATE vaporizes and condensers with precise information on enthalpy of vaporization; SIZE VAPORIZER/CONDESER storage vessels with density data; DETERMINE THE HEATING AND COOLING REQUIREMENTS of reactors with values for the enthalpy of formation; DETERMINE CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIA for reactions using Gibbs' energy of formation; DESIGN AND OPERATE EFFECTIVE STRIPPING OPERATIONS for water pollutant removal using water solubility data and Henry's Law Constant; FIND NEEDE
Four Stars Satisfied. Handbook supplies huge amount of properties information. The author has produced a unique chemical, physical, and thermodynamics properties reference for scientists, researchers, chemists, and engineers. Those working in agricultural chemicals, environmental studies, explosion hazards, petroleum refining, petrochemicals, pollution control, safety and health, soil and groundwater remediation, and many other fields where finding properties data is important, will find this handbook highly beneficial. Dr. Yaws, assisted by colleagues and students, has worked for. Fred Wright said Essential compilation of data for many process fluids. This book is a reasonably well ordered compilation of process fluid properties for a remarkably broad range of fluids. This book is a "must have" for anyone dealing with a broad range of process industries. It is a "good to have" for all other engineers working in chemical process industry.
Useful for hundreds of on-the-job information requirements, this much-needed Handbook makes it easy to obtain critical values for temperature and pressure for design or operation of compressors and turbines; find heat capacity data for heat exchangers; accurately design and safely operate vaporizers and condensers with precise information on enthalpy of vaporization; size vaporizer/condenser storage vessels with density data; determine the heating and cooling requirements of reactors with values for the enthalpy of formation; determine chemical equilibria for reactions using Gibbs’ energy of formation; design and operate effective stripping operations for water pollutant removal using water solubility data and Henry’s Law Constant; find needed adsorption capacities of activated carbon for cleaning air of various pollutants; use soil sorption coefficient for agricultural applications; solve problems for fluid flow of gases and liquids using viscosity data; use thermal conductivity data for heat transfer applications; use lower and upper explosion limits in air, flock point and autoignition temperature for safety in designs and operations; use threshold limit value (ACGIH), permissible exposure limit (OSHA) and recommend
