Features: The Chemical Machinery Engineering Handbook has been listed by the General Administration of Press and Publication as a "Key National Book for the 9th Five-Year Plan." Edited by Professor Yu Guocong, an Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and reviewed and compiled by over 100 chemical machinery experts, the handbook is published in three volumes. It is structured according to the discipline system of chemical machinery engineering and related engineering knowledge.
Volume 1 covers the theoretical foundations of chemical machinery engineering, including solid mechanics, machine dynamics, fluid mechanics, and engineering thermodynamics, as well as heat and mass transfer principles, and technical foundations such as structural materials, pressure vessels, and pipelines.
Volume 2 includes absorption towers, extraction equipment, drying equipment, crystallization equipment, membrane devices, mechanical separation equipment, crushing machinery, agglomeration granulation and classification equipment, solid material storage and conveying machinery, mixing and blending equipment, reactors, refrigeration, low-temperature equipment, and heat pumps, as well as industrial waste treatment equipment.
Volume 3 focuses on practical engineering applications of chemical machinery and related engineering content, including the installation and management of chemical machinery, control engineering, and computer applications.
In the section on structural materials, it discusses material degradation, damage, improvement, and protection methods from the perspective of chemical environmental conditions, as well as material selection, summarizing practical application experiences of chemical machinery materials in industrial practice.
The section on pressure vessels and pipelines primarily introduces the structure, stress analysis calculations, and design of cylindrical, spherical, and horizontal vessels, as well as the layout and calculations of pipelines and their components, based on the latest national standards and industrial practices.
The section on chemical process machinery and equipment elaborates on the structural types and components of chemical machinery and equipment, as well as design calculations.
The section on the manufacturing, maintenance, and installation of chemical machinery describes the technical characteristics and key points of chemical machinery, and introduces modern equipment reliability analysis, condition diagnosis, and safety assessment techniques.
The section on control engineering and computer applications explains the principles of process control, computer hardware, software, and language knowledge, as well as the application of control technology in the continuous and automated operation of chemical machinery. It also covers the use of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided analysis in the design, operation, and control of chemical machinery.
The handbook compiles all professional knowledge in the field of chemical machinery, reflecting practical experience in research, design, and operation. It is grounded in the discipline and oriented toward engineering practice. The content and organization are designed to align with and complement the sister volume, Chemical Engineering Handbook.
The target readers of the handbook are chemical machinery professionals with university or college-level education, as well as teaching, research, design, production, and management personnel.
The book introduces chemical process machinery and equipment, including pumps, compressors, industrial steam turbines, heat exchange equipment, heating furnaces, distillation and absorption towers, extraction equipment, and drying equipment.
