This book examines power plants, from input of energy to output of rotating-shaft mechanical power, and it follows the well-established tradition of covering the mechanical engineer's area of responsibility in power plant design. Its contents are arranged to match the requirements of various universities in the USA, Europe, the Middle East, the Far East and Africa and it has been written for courses in power plant engineering for both junior and senior students. However, it should also be useful for practicing power plant engineers and plant operators. It assumes that the reader has a background knowledge of basic engineering thermodynamics, heat transfer, mathematics and mechanics.

Fuel cell cars can provide more efficient and cleaner transportation. However, we use our cars for transportation only 5% of the time. When parked, the fuel cell in the car can produce electricity from hydrogen, which is cleaner and more efficient than the current electricity system, generating useful ‘waste’ products in the form of heat and fresh water. The produced electricity, heat and fresh water can be fed into the respective grids or be used directly in our house, office or the school of our kids. The required hydrogen can be produced from gas (natural gas, biogas) or electricity (hydro, wind, solar, etc.). In the end, these fuel cell cars can replace all power plants worldwide. As a result, the ‘car as power plant’ can create an integrated, efficient, reliable, flexible, clean, smart and personalized transport, energy and water system: a real paradigm shift. The ‘Car as Power Plant’ is developed at Delft Technical University, in The Green Village: a sustainable, lively and entrepreneurial environment where we discover, learn and show how to solve society’s urgent challenges. The Green Village unifies clever, imaginative strengths of scientists and entrepreneurs and turns ideas and visions into experiences and commercially viable products and services. Innovative power that sets horizons for a new, sustainable, green and circular economy.

This comprehensive volume provides a complete, authoritative, up-to-date reference for all aspects of power plant engineering. Coverage ranges from engineering economics to coal and limestone handling, from design processes to plant thermal heat balances. Both theory and practical applications are covered, giving engineers the information needed to plan, design, construct, upgrade, and operate power plants. Power Plant Engineering is the culmination of experience of hundreds of engineers from Black & Veatch, a leading firm in the field for more than 80 years. The authors review all major power generating technologies, giving particular emphasis to current approaches. Special features of the book include: * More than 1000 figures and lines drawings that illustrate all aspects of the subject. * Coverage of related components and systems in power plants such as turbine-generators, feedwater heaters, condenser, and cooling towers. * Definitions and analyses of the features of various plant systems. * Discussions of promising future technologies. Power Plant Engineering will be the standard reference in the professional engineer's library as the source of information on steam power plant generation. In addition, the clear presentation of the material will make this book suitable for use by students preparing to enter the field.

Augmenting the broad information contained in the Handbook of Psychiatric Measures, this guide examines the real-world issues involved in implementing measures in actual clinical settings. Eleven contributors focus on both the uses and limitations of structured diagnostic interviews in clinical practice and on specific measures for assessing two crucially important factors in clinical practice: suicide risk and global functioning. This guide details the pros and cons of using structured interviews and rating scales in clinical settings to ensure reliable and valid assessments of diagnosis, symptoms and outcomes.
