A Practical Guide to Combustion

The North American Combustion Handbook is a very worthwhile investment. It is a real time saver, as it compiles useful, useable information relating to gas burner design and operation, stoichiometry, basic heat transfer and fluid flow. A real plus and value is the units conversion section in the back of the book. Virtually any conversion you can think of is tabularized there. Although geared to industrial applications in some sections, the presentation is general enough to be of value to assist in introduction to or refreshing oneself with the combustion concepts involved.
