| Title | Cryogenic Helium Refrigeration for Middle and Large Powers |
| Author(s) | Gistau Baguer, Guy |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2020. |
| Description | XLII, 691 p. 686 illus., 511 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book offers a practical introduction to helium refrigeration engineering, taking a logical and structured approach to the design, building, commissioning, operation and maintenance of refrigeration systems. It begins with a short refresher of cryogenic principles, and a review of the theory of heat exchangers, allowing the reader to understand the importance of the heat exchanger role in the various thermodynamic cycle structures. The cycles are considered from the simplest (Joule Thomson) to the most complicated ones for the very large refrigeration plants and, finally, those operating at temperatures lower than 4.5 K. The focus then turns to the operation, ability and limitations of the main components, including room temperature cycle screw compressors, heat exchangers, cryogenic expansion turbines, cryogenic centrifugal compressors and circulators. The book also describes the basic principles of process control and studies the operating situations of helium plants, with emphasis on high level efficiency. A major issue is helium purity, and the book explains why helium is polluted, how to purify it and then how to check its purity, to ensure that all components are filled with pure helium prior to starting. Although the intention of the book is not to design thermodynamic cycles, it is of interest to a designer or operator of a cryogenic system to perform some simplified calculations to get an idea of how components or systems are behaving. Throughout the book, such calculations are generally performed using Microsoft?? Excel and the Gaspak?? or Hepak?? software. |

| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2002. |
| Description | X, 566 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This volume includes revised and extended versions of selected papers presented at the Tenth International Symposium on Applications of Laser Techniques to Fluid Mechanics held at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon, during the period of July 10 to 13, 2000. The papers describe instrumentation developments for Velocity, Scalar and Multi-Phase Flows and results of measurements of Turbulent Flows, and Combustion and Engines. The papers demonstrate the continuing and healthy interest in the development of understanding of new methodologies and implementation in terms of new instrumentation. The prime objective of the Tenth Symposium was to provide a forum for the presentation of the most advanced research on laser techniques for flow measurements, and communicate significant results to fluid mechanics. The application of laser techniques to scientific and engineering fluid flow research was emphasized, but contributions to the theory and practice of laser methods were also considered where they facilitate new improved fluid mechanic research. Attention was placed on laser-Doppler anemometry, particle sizing and other methods for the measurement of velocity and scalars, such as particle image velocimetry and laser induced fluorescence |

| Title | Thermodynamics of Fluids Under Flow |
| Author(s) | Jou, D;Casas-Vazquez, J;Criado-Sancho, M |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2001. |
| Description | XI, 231 p. 1 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The book analyzes the thermodynamic aspects of several phenomena induced by flow in fluid systems. It begins with a macroscopic formulation of the thermodynamic theory, within the framework of extended irreversible thermodynamics, and compares it with other non-equilibrium approaches. These macroscopic results are examined from a microscopic point of view for different systems, namely, ideal gases, non-ideal gases and dilute polymer solutions. The thermodynamic approach is applied to the analysis of shear-induced changes in the phase diagram of polymer solutions, to shear-induced diffusion and to chemical reactions under flow. It is also compared with the dynamical approach based on the detailed evolution equations. The book may be especially useful for researchers in non-equilibrium thermodynamics or non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and in polymer physics or materials sciences |

| Title | Statistical Foundations of Irreversible Thermodynamics |
| Author(s) | Luzzi, Roberto;Vasconcellos, Aurea R;Ramos, J. Galvao |
| Publication | Wiesbaden, 1. Imprint: Vieweg+Teubner Verlag
2. Vieweg+Teubner Verlag, 2000. |
| Description | 182 p. 1 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Some aspects of the physics of many-body systems arbitrarily away from equilibrium, mainly the characterization and irreversible evolution of their macroscopic state, are considered. The present status of phenomenological irreversible thermodynamics is described. An approach for building a statistical thermodynamics - dubbed Informational-Statistical-Thermodynamics - based on a non-equilibrium statistical ensemble formalism is presented. The formalism can be considered as encompassed within the scope of the so-called Predictive Statistical Mechanics, in which the predictability of future states in terms of the knowledge of present and past states, and the question of historicity in the case of systems with complex behaviour, is its main characteristic. The book is recommended for researchers in the area of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and thermodynamics, as well as a textbook for advanced courses for graduate students in the area of condensed matter physics |

| Title | Phase Diagrams and Heterogeneous Equilibria : A Practical Introduction |
| Author(s) | Predel, Bruno;Hoch, Michael;Pool, Monte J |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2004. |
| Description | XV, 352 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This graduate-level textbook provides an introduction to the practical application of phase diagrams. It is intended for students and researchers in chemistry, metallurgy, mineralogy, and materials science as well as in engineering and physics. Heterogeneous equilibria are described by a minimum of theory illustrated by practical examples and realistic case discussions from the different fields of application. The treatment of the physical and energetic background of phase equilibria leads to the discussion of the thermodynamics of mixtures and the correlation between energetics and composition. Thus, tools for the prediction of energetic, structural, and physical quantities are provided. The authors treat the nucleation of phase transitions, the production and stability of technologically important metastable phases, and metallic glasses. Furthermore, the text also concisely presents the thermodynamics and composition of polymer systems |

| Title | Extended Irreversible Thermodynamics |
| Author(s) | Jou, D;Casas-Vazquez, J;Lebon, G |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2001. |
| Description | XV, 463 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This is the first comprehensive monograph on a new thermodynamic theory that goes beyond the classical theory of irreversible processes. In contrast to the classical approach, the local equilibrium hypothesis is abandoned. The basic variables describing the system are no longer the equilibrium conserved variables: the latter are complemented by non-equilibrium quantities, such as the heat flux, the viscous pressure tensor, the matter flux, the electric current flux, etc. The claims made for extended thermodynamics are confirmed by the kinetic theory of gases and statistical mechanics. The book covers a wide spectrum of applications such as hyperbolic heat conduction, rheological models, waves in fluids, generalized hydrodynamics, phase diagrams of solutions under shear, non-Fickian diffusion, electrical systems, and a relativistic formulation including some cosmological applications. The book also contains a wide discussion of the foundations and the scope of the current theories on non-equilibrium thermodynamics (classical irreversible thermodynamics and rational thermodynamics). The present edition reflects new developments in the theory and applications, adds new problems and provides a more detailed comparison with other fields of active research. It contains one hundred thirty proposed problems, whose detailed solutions, as well as wide bibliography on extended irreversible thermodynamics and related topics,may be unloaded from the www.uab.es/dep-fisica/eit website |

| Title | Thermal Design and Thermal Behaviour of Radio Telescopes and their Enclosures |
| Author(s) | Greve, Albert;Bremer, Michael |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2010. |
| Description | X, 420 p. 249 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Radio telescopes as well as communication antennas operate under the influence of gravity, temperature and wind. Among those, temperature influences may degrade the performance of a radio telescope through transient changes of the focus, pointing, path length and sensitivity, often in an unpredictable way. Thermal Design and Thermal Behaviour of Radio Telescopes and their Enclosures reviews the design and construction principles of radio telescopes in view of thermal aspects and heat transfer with the variable thermal environment; it explains supporting thermal model calculations and the application and efficiency of thermal protection and temperature control; it presents many measurements illustrating the thermal behaviour of telescopes in the environment of their observatory sites. The book benefits scientists and radio/communication engineers, telescope designers and construction firms as well as telescope operators, observatory staff, but also the observing astronomer who is directly confronted with the thermal behaviour of a telescope |
