Book Description:
This book is based on the original "Household Appliances" and has been revised through deletion, supplementation, modification, and improvement. It serves as a textbook for non-household appliance majors in colleges and universities. The content is divided into thirteen chapters, sequentially covering an introduction to household appliances, cleaning appliances, cooking appliances, refrigeration and freezing appliances, air conditioning appliances (such as electric fans and air conditioners), audio-visual appliances (such as recorders, black-and-white and color televisions, video recorders, and VCDs), educational and entertainment appliances (such as computers and game consoles), and communication appliances. The book concludes with experiments and appendices.
Each chapter remains largely independent, adaptable to various course lengths. The explanations are clear and concise, emphasizing the application of new technologies and development trends. It covers the selection, use, and maintenance of various household appliances. This book is suitable for physics departments of normal universities and other science majors in colleges and universities that are not household appliance-related. It can also serve as a reference for short-term training courses on household appliances, amateur enthusiasts, and engineering technicians.
