Introduction to Turbomachinery: Key Concepts and Applications

By Sohaib Obeid

The term turbomachinery refers to machines that transfer energy between a rotor and a fluid (gas or liquid). These machines, which include turbines, compressors, pumps, and fans, are used in power generation, aerospace, oil and gas, and various industrial processes.

This book provides a clear and accessible foundation for learning the principles of turbomachinery, related analytical approaches, and numerical methods, as well as their applications in fields including mechanical engineering, aerospace, energy systems, and industrial design.

The book is intended for students and early-career professionals with a basic understanding of fluid mechanics and thermodynamics and aims to prepare readers for more advanced study in the field. However, it is not just for academics. It helps build the technical knowledge needed to innovate, design, and optimize energy, fluid systems, and beyond.
