Design Techniques for Engine Manifolds: Wave Action Methods for Ic Engines

D.E Winterbone

i cant seem to find this anywhere recently.
I was wondering if anyone had a copy, and if so, would you trade it for my Race Car Vehicle Dynamics book my Milliken or sell it to me. Mine is brand new.

thank you.

 

isbn# ?

 

there are two books that go together.

Design Techniques for Engine Manifolds: Wave Action Methods for Ic Engines

# Language: English
# ISBN-10: 0768004829
# ISBN-13: 978-0768004823

Theory of Engine Manifold Design: Wave Action Methods for IC Engines

let us know when you find it. i'll buy it from you when you are done.

how much do you want for your racecar dynamics book?

 

i keep all my books, lol.
but i would sell you my RCVD one for 95$ shipped.
its brand new in the wrapping.
pm me if interested.
thanks

this is an expensive book!

 

yeah its not worth that much.
retail is 100$, lol. people are selling it for a ton more than its worth.

 

I have it ,but im not selling it haha. I lucked out and got it new from a seller on amazon UK. Id check there, if I find it somewhere I will send you a msg. Supposedly there is a video that goes along with this book as well ,but I have not been able to find it.

For some reason the isbn-10 numbers must be reveresed on these two. I have the 364 pg one and its the isbn for the one with 512 pages listed?

 

is one of these books a modernized edition of the other? Or are both books different in literature.

 

theyre a 2 set volume.

 

I read it...

cool...

 

I'll check at my university engineering book store and see i they have it

 

thank you very much.

 

http://www.allbookstores.com/a....html

this place is actualy selling them for MSRP...instead of rapeing you for 500 extra bucks!

 

nah if you look there all of those places dont have it.
thanks though.

 

some of them dont but the uk store has it for 198.00.

Im thinking of buying it also. So, someone that has this...can you tell me what the book contains? pictorial's, cad drawings, formulas for lengths, bends, stuff like that.
does anyone have the theory book...what does it have in it etc.

Learn anything..?

 

hopefully he did. its the book to read on engine manifold design apparently.

 

I don't own the book, but am currently reading it. I am studying mechanical engineering and am borrowing it from my university library. It is listed on amazon.co.uk as others have noted. FYI this book was published by SAE and Wiley; so it has two different ISBN numbers depending on who printed it. (wiley 186058179X)

As far as the content, for the person that asked. This book is like the Bible of engine manifold analysis. This book would be the New Testament and "The Thermodynamics and Gas Dynamics of Internal Combustion Engines" would be the Old Testament. Like the scriptures, this book also requires a level of dedication to read.

I am not sure of your background but the book is not exactly a "Honda Builders Handbook" type of book. To fully utilize the contents of the book you should probably have a background in basic thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and have been introduced to the differential forms of mass, momentum, and energy equations (like BSL's Transport Phenomena). A large part of the book is dedicated to the modeling (computer simulation) of intake manifolds (as was Benson's work). This is done by simplifying the aforementioned equations and making assumptions. If you have a back ground in mechanical engineering (or the like) you will probably enjoy the book, if not it can still be a informative and entertaining book, but you could probably find a lot of the information else where in an easier to understand format.

Doesn't VT have that book?

http://www.worldcat.org/wcpa/o...ch%3A

They ship to the US

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/off...=11-1

 

I managed to get a second hand copy on ebay for £50.
I have heard of another book on manifold design, I don't know the title but the Authors name was Evans. Anybody read this? Any good?

Lee

 

yeah we have it but not to keep.
i always keep books for reference.
