·         ISBN-13: 978-0849310744

Book Description

Thermodynamic data of copolymer solutions are a necessity for industrial and laboratory processes and serve as essential tools for understanding the physical behavior of copolymer solutions, intermolecular interactions, and the molecular nature of mixtures. Scientists and engineers in both academic and industrial research need this data. This handbook compiles original data gathered from approximately 300 literature source and provides 250 vapor-pressure isotherms, 75 tables of Henry's constants, 225 data sets, and 70 PVT tables for more than 100 copolymers and 165 solvents. It is the first complete overview of this complex subject.

Instrumentation Reference Book

·         Hardcover: 1062 pages

·         Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann; 3 edition (November 2002)

·         Language: English

·         ISBN-10: 0750671238

·         ISBN-13: 978-0750671231

Book Description
Instrumentation is not a clearly defined subject, having a 'fuzzy' boundary with a number of other disciplines. Often categorized as either 'techniques' or 'applications' this book addresses the various applications that may be needed with reference to the practical techniques that are available for the instrumentation or measurement of a specific physical quantity or quality. This makes it of direct interest to anyone working in the process, control and instrumentation fields where these measurements are essential.

The latest edition of the Instrumentation Reference Book is a comprehensive and authoritative collection of technical information, which is of direct practical value to instrumentation and control engineers as well as all instrument technicians and users. It is also an indispensable addition to any academic library for the benefit of engineering and science students. Written by a collection of specialist contributors under the guidance of Walt Boyes, the third edition of this book (developed from the work originally published for more than 40 years as Jones Instrument Technology) has been updated to include chapters on the fieldbus standards, reliability, EMC, 'virtual instrumentation', fibre optics, smart and intelligent transmitters, analyzers, level and flow meters, and many more.
