N2  - "An understanding of the fundamentals of mechanical systems is a prerequisite for engineering studies. This book encapsulates the basic concepts of varied fields of mechanical engineering, particularly thermodynamics, various energies, role of prime movers in power generation (Steam boilers, hydraulic turbines, pumps and IC engines) power transmission (Belt and gear drives) and the theory behind refrigeration and air conditioning. It also introduces the reader to the use of various machine tools, soldering, brazing, welding in manufacturing processes the fundamentals of engineering materials robotics and automation. The book builds on these topics from the first principles, amply supported by examples solved problems and illustrations"-- Back cover
