Historically, it grew out of efforts to construct more efficient heat engines—devices for extracting useful work from expanding , corrosion, and tribology tribology Study of the interactions of sliding surfaces. It includes three subjects: friction, wear, and lubrication. Many manifestations of tribology are beneficial and make modern life possible. . Author Neville W. Sachs draws upon his more than thirty years of experience and expertise to provide the reader with a practical, informative, guide to improving machinery maintenance and reliability. "Practical Plant Failure Analysis" presents practical guidance on failure mechanism, including what leads to these failures and how to avoid them, as well as featuring 'user friendly' charts to logically diagnose a failure and take the appropriate correction action. "Practical Plant Failure Analysis" offers a clear and detailed explanation of the differences between through- and case-hardened gear teeth, while its informed and informative text is enhanced with more than 300 photographs and illustrations to develop competence and confidence in visually diagnosing machinery failures. An essential reference and comprehensive instructional guide to diagnosing and dealing with machinery failure, "Practical Plant Failure Analysis" is a core addition to academic, trade school, and professional reference library collections. |
