We are offering a complete ENGINEERING FUNDAMENTALS HANDBOOKS set from an excellent series developed by the US government for their engineers and contractors working on nuclear power plants, where performance is imperative.

 

The handbooks offer practical, outstanding quality material on the broad spectrum of engineering subjects. The HANDBOOKS are offered in Adobe pdf (CD) format.  We recommend them without reservation for the high quality of the materials and low cost. The Thermodynamics, Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer CD is included with “The Engine Cooling System” book.  Its TABLE OF CONTENTS can be viewed by clicking on the “Thermodynamics” link below.

 

The HANDBOOKS set make a great gift to College bound and Senior High School students, those studying for the PE test (Professional Engineer Certification) or reference for practicing engineers or technicians. The quality and practical value of the information presented is on par and often beats the quality of information available at many college libraries.  The CD does not occupy the shelve space required to store books and thousands of pages.
