Applied Thermodynamics
Taftan Data
<<Applied thermodynamics is the science of the relationship between heat,
work, and systems that analyze energy processes. The energy processes that
convert heat energy from available sources such as chemical fuels into
mechanical work are the major concern of this science. Thermodynamics
consists of a number of analytical and theoretical methods which may be
applied to machines for energy conversion.>>

Pump and Compressor Descriptions
Compton's Encyclopedia Online
<<A pump is a device that expends energy to raise, transport, or compress
fluids--liquids and gases. The term pump is generally used for
liquid-handling or hand-operated devices, while the term compressor is used
when the pressure of a gas is increased in a motor-driven machine.>>
