About the Book

Logan's Turbomachinery: Flowpath Design and Performance Fundamentals, Third Edition is the long-awaited revision of this classic textbook, thoroughly updated by Dr. Bijay Sultanian. While the basic concepts remain constant, turbomachinery design has advanced since the Second Edition was published in 1993. Airfoils in modern turbomachines feature three-dimensional geometries, Computational Fluid Mechanics (CFD) has become a standard design tool, and major advances have been made in the materials and manufacturing technologies that affect turbomachinery design. The new edition adresses these trends to best serve today's students, and design engineers working in turbomachinery industries.

Table of Contents:
1. Turbomachinery History, Classifications, and Applications 2. Basic Concepts and Relations of Aerothermodynamics 3. Dimensionless Quantities 4. Centrifugal Pumps and Fans 5. Centrifugal Compressors 6. Axial-Flow Pumps, Fans, and Compressors 7. Radial-Flow Gas Turbines 8. Axial-Flow Gas Turbines 9. Steam Turbines 10. Hydraulic Turbines 11. Wind Turbines 12. Gas-Turbine Exhaust Diffusers 13. Computational Fluid Dynamics and Its Role in Turbomachinery Flowpath Design Appendix A: Tables of Conversion Factors, Pump Efficiency, and Compressor Specific Speed Appendix B: Derivation of Equation for Slip Coefficient Appendix C: Formulation of Equation for Hydraulic Loss in Centrifugal Pumps with Backward-Curved Blades Appendix D: Viscous Effects on Pump Performance Appendix E: Comparison of Formulas for Compressor Slip Coefficient, μs = Vu2′/Vu2 Appendix F: Molecular Weight of Selected Gases Appendix G: Pressure and Temperature Changes in Isentropic Free and Vortex Vortices Appendix H: Dimensionless Velocity Diagrams for Axial-Flow Compressors and Turbines Appendix I: Throughflow Design with Simple Radial Equilibrium Equation Appendix J: Review of Necessary Mathematics
