Turbomachinery history, types, and applications -- Basic concepts and relations of aerothermodynamics -- Dimensionless quantities -- Centrifugal pumps and fans -- Centrifugal compressors -- Axial-flow pumps, fans, and compressors -- Radial-flow gas turbines -- Axial-flow gas turbines -- Steam turbines -- Hydraulic turbines -- Wind turbines -- Gas turbine exhaust diffusers -- Computational fluid dynamics and its role in turbomachinery flowpath design.

"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"--
