Thermal Explosion
A full review of thermal explosion theory featuring a new universal notation as a framework to develop and report research results
Summarizing all significant and notable developments made in the field over nearly 100 years, Thermal Explosion provides a single, authoritative source of information on the subject that connects the theory with examples from practical applications. After opening with an introduction to prerequisite technical information, the book goes on to cover the mathematical theory behind thermal explosion, with detailed explanations of how thermal explosion can develop in different media and under different conditions and strategies and techniques that can be used to prevent thermal explosion.
Readers will learn how to recognize thermal explosion hazards within technical designs and operation procedures, including for lithium ion batteries, biofuels, biomaterials, and microcombustors, predict the circumstances that may cause a thermal explosion in a particular design or process, and develop optimal mitigating strategies for these risks. Each chapter is supported by extensive example problems that introduce readers to a universal notation that can be used as a framework for developing and reporting their own research results.
Topics covered in Thermal Explosion include:
Thermal Explosion is an essential, up-to-date reference on the subject for engineering researchers and professionals, along with mathematicians and other scientists working in related fields. The book is also an excellent learning aid within an academic setting for graduate-level researchers or as supplemental reading in upper-level courses.

Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Adobe-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Adobe-DRM wird hier ein „harter” Kopierschutz verwendet. Wenn die notwendigen Voraussetzungen nicht vorliegen, können Sie das E-Book leider nicht öffnen. Daher müssen Sie bereits vor dem Download Ihre Lese-Hardware vorbereiten.
Bitte beachten Sie: Wir empfehlen Ihnen unbedingt nach Installation der Lese-Software diese mit Ihrer persönlichen Adobe-ID zu autorisieren!
