P. Gandhidasan j I When engineers need to evaluate the values of moist-air properties, they generally refer to psychrometric charts or tables. 

Computer databases allow for the easy and readily accessible time standard data. Often charts and tables are used in hard copy, especially when the engineer is familiar with such estimating tools. Charts and production information can be found in Ostwald (1992). When developed property, standard time data are considered to be accurate and relatively inexpensive for labor estimating. 

Similar to the above section, plate bearing tests or pressuremeter tests carried out in boreholes are applicable for the assessment of bearing capacity and settlement. For initial reference to assess engineering properties of engineered fill, empirical chart and table in NAVFAC (1971) manual publication reproduced in Figure 3.12 and Table 3.9 may be of assistance. 

The designer should select the type of lubrication recommended in the power rating charts or tables. More detailed information on engineering steel chain drive lubrication can be found in chapter 13.

If you are a senior staff engineer for a major international consumer electronics manufacturer and are making an inquiry about property data for various materials regarding transmission and absorption effects in the RF spectrum, you will probably get an answer fairly quickly. It will most likely involve a technical report with some charts and tables, and should have some data that is relevant to the specifics of your application. This report might be a reprint of a technical paper that was presented at an international conference, or it might be white paper labeled F roprietary and Confidential. ... 

Plots of the properties of various substances as well as tables and charts are extremely useful in solving engineering thermodynamic problems. Two-dimensional representations of processes on P-V, T-S, or H-S diagrams are especially useful in analyzing cyclical processes. The use of the P-V diagram was illustrated earlier. A typical T-S diagram for a Rankine vapor power cycle is depicted in Figure 2-36. 

SAE numbers have been established by the Society of Automotive Engineers to specify ranges of SUS viscosities of oils at SAE test temperatures. Winter numbers (5W, low, 20W) are determined by tests at 0°F. Summer numbers (20W, SOW, etc.) designate the SUS range at 210°F. Table 40.1 is a chart of the temperature ranges. 

Once the class and type of pump are selected, consult a rating table (Table 6.25) or rating chart (Fig. 6.18) to determine if a suitable pump is available from the manufacturer whose unit will be used. When the hydraulic requirements fall between two standard pump models, it is usual practice to choose the next larger size of pump, unless there is some reason why an exact head and capacity are required for the unit. When one manufacturer does not have the desired unit, refer to the engineering data of other manufacturers. Also keep in mind that some pumps are custom-built for a given job when precise head and capacity requirements must be met. 

Estimate the vapor pressure of acetone (mm Hg) at 50 C (a) from data in Perry s Chemical Engineers Handbook and the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, (b) from the Cox chart (Figure 6.1-4), and (c) from the Antoine equation using parameters from Table R4. 

The table of combustion flammabilities, accompanying this article, is not intended to replace flammability charts that were designed for safety considerations. Rather, it is a tool for the combustion engineer who is seeking to achieve complete combustion. 

It is seen that all these charts yield quite reasonable values for engineering purposes. Because the increased precision that may accompany the use of a third parameter in calculating z is not necessary for our purposes, and because the presentation of z values so as to include the third parameter is considerably more cumbersome, we shall not show the three-parameter tables here. 

Note Tables in SI and American Engineering units for superheated steam are on the chart in the pocket in the back of the book.

Hundreds of common sense techniques and calculations help users quickly and accurately solve day-to-day design, operations, and equipment problems. 

Many petroleum engineering and process design calculations dealing with natural gases require knowledge of deviation factors or compressibility Z factors. Experimental data from pressure-volume-temperature (P-V-T) measurements are seldom available. The Z-factors are available in charts [27] or tables as a function of pseudo-reduced temperatures T and pressures P. However, use of these charts is often time consuming and involves complex calculations.
