- Summary:
- "Thermofluid systems are complex engineering systems that incorporate heat transfer, thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and mass transfer. Common examples of thermofluid systems include pumps, compressors, heat exchangers, HVAC systems, power generation systems, and alternative and sustainable energy technologies. Optimization is the engineering term for improving a design for best performance, efficiency, economy, and/or environmental friendliness, and is a critical consideration for engineers when designing thermofluid systems"-- Provided by publisher.
