Natural Gas Engines For Transportation and Power Generation/Двигатели на природном газе для транспорта и производства электроэнергии

Книга на английском языке
Energy demand has been rising remarkably due to increasing population and urbanization. Global economy and society are significantly dependent on the energy availability because it touches every facet of human life and its activities. Transportation and power generation are two major examples. Without the transportation by millions of personalized and mass transport vehicles and availability of 24х7 power, human civilization would not have reached contemporary living standards.
