Ronald DiPippo
Ron DiPippo, Professor Emeritus at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, is a world-considered geothermal expert. Particularly important in the field of geothermal energy and engineering principles. The thermodynamic basis for the design of geothermal power plants. The geothermal energy conversion systems. Its practical emphasis is to understand the geothermal energy and provide a unique compilation of hard-to-obtain data and experience.
An important new chapter covers Environmental Impact and Abatement Technologies, including gaseous and solid emissions; water, noise and thermal pollutions; land usage; disturbance of natural hydrothermal manifestations, habitats and vegetation; minimization of CO2 emissions and environmental impact assessment.
The book is illustrated with over 240 photographs and drawings. Nine chapters include practice problems, with solutions, which should be used as a course text. Also includes a definitive worldwide compilation of the geothermal power plant.
* Engineering principles for the design of geothermal power systems
* Practical applications are backed up, applied in practice, geothermal energy conversion systems
* World renowned geothermal expert DiPippo has a new chapter on Environmental Impact and Abatement Technology in this new edition

Aim high with an exciting and curious model from Ugears, the Flight Starter, a portable hand catapult loaded with smart mechanics and a lot of fun.
The Flight Starter is a mechanical launcher for light flying airplane models, three of which you will find in the kit. The model’s one of a kind design is a pure work of imagination that produced a look resembling something from outer space – a star ship, a shuttle or a blaster gun from a science fiction adventure film.
