Abstract
Following the success of his first volume related to Hydraulics, Pipe Flow, Industrial HVAC & Utility Systems, Mister Mech Mentor, Volume 2 now offers an all-new, easy-to-read collection of chapters featuring ASME Piping & Pressure Vessel Code applications. Written in a friendly style, this book provides the essential benefits of instruction by a personal mentor who explains "why" and "how" while teaching potentially dangerous lessons in physics and engineering design. Spared the embarrassment of painful mistakes, both early-career and experienced engineers will gain practical knowledge from frank, colorful cases and learn to solve a variety of mechanical problems, including: Pipe Stress & Strain; Structural Supports; Pressure Vessels; Jacketed Pipes; Bellows-Type Expansion Joints; Process Piping.
