CRC, 2001. - 800 p. ISBN:0849323371. Despite the length of time it has been around, its importance, and vast amounts of research, combustion is still far from being completely understood. Industrial applications of combustion add environmental, cost, and fuel consumption issues to its fundamental complexity, and the process and power generation industries in particular present their own unique challenges The John Zink Combustion Handbook is de...

NA Press, 2011. 117 p. ISBN:0309163870 9780309163873 This is a study of the structure and use of a cyberinfrastructure for combustion research. The trends in the continued use of fossil fuels and likely use of alternative combustion fuels call for more rapid development of improved combustion systems. Combustion has provided society with most of its energy needs for millenia, from igniting the fires of cave dwellers to propelling the rockets t...

4 Edition. Elsevier Inc. 2008. - 773 p. When approached by the publisher Elsevier to consider writing a 4th Edition of Combustion, we considered the challenge was to produce a book that would extend the worthiness of the previous editions. Since the previous editions served as a basis of understanding of the combustion field, and as a text to be used in many class courses, we realized that, although the fundamentals do not change, there were thr...

Wiley-VCH, 2002, 300 p. ISBN:3527302107. The combustion phenomena of propellants and explosives are dependent on physicochemical parameters such as ingredients, catalysts, pressure, initial temperature, and flow field. This book presents the fundamental bases of energetics of materials, deflagration and detonation, thermochemical process of decomposition and combustion, and combustion wave structures. The combustion mechanisms of various type...

Second, Completely Revised and Extended Edition - Wiley-VCH Verlag, Weinheim, 2007. 509 p. This second edition of the classic on the thermochemistry of combustion now features five new chapters and updated coverage of significant recent developments in the field. Addressing both experimental as well as theoretical aspects, the book covers the thermochemical and combustion characteristics of all important types of energetic materials, such as ex...

Marcel Dekker, 2004. 599 p. ISBN:0-8247-4699-6 Details the development of fluidized bed combustion boilers, as well as the fundamental processes in boiler furnaces and coal combustion in fluidized beds. Explores applications in the investigation of coal suitability for fluidized bed combustion, as well as harmful matter emissions from FBC boilers.

Cambridge University Press, 2000 p. 304 p. ISBN:0521660823 The combustion of fossil fuels remains a key technology for the foreseeable future. It is therefore important to understand combustion mechanisms, in particular, the role of turbulence within this process. This monograph presents a thorough introduction to the field of turbulent combustion. After an overview of modeling approaches, Peters considers the three distinct cases of premixed,...

Taylor & Francis, 2001. 746 p. ISSN:1364-7830 Combustion Theory and Modelling is devoted to the application of mathematical modelling, numerical simulation and experimental techniques to the study of combustion. Experimental studies that are published in the Journal should be closely related to theoretical issues, by highlighting fundamental theoretical questions or by providing a sound basis for comparison with theory. Articles can cover a...

Earthscan Publications Ltd., 2008. 442 p. ISBN:1844072495. Prepared under the auspices of the IEA Bioenergy Research Programme, this unique handbook presents both the theory and applications of biomass combustion and cofiring, from basic principles to industrial combustion and environmental impact, in a clear and comprehensive manner. It offers a solid grounding on biomass combustion and advice on improving combustion systems. Written by leadin...
