Books in the Powertrain series

This book provides an introduction to the design and mechanical development of reciprocating piston engines for vehicular applications. Each major engine component and sub-system is then taken up in turn, from lubrication system, to cooling system, to intake and exhaust systems, to NVH.

The bookdeals with the increasingly complex test systems for powertrain components andsystems giving an overview of the diverse types of test beds for allcomponents of an advanced powertrain focusing on specific topics such asinstrumentation, control, simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, automation or testfacility management.
