Introduction to Nuclear Engineering

by John R. Lamarsh, Anthony Baratta

For junior- and senior-level courses in Nuclear Engineering. Applying nuclear engineering essentials to the modern world Introduction to Nuclear Engineering , 4th Edition reflects changes in the industry since the 2001 publication of its predecessor. With recent data and information, including expanded discussions about the worldwide nuclear renaissance and the development and construction of advanced plant designs, the text aims to provide students with a modern, high-level introduction to nuclear engineering. The nuclear industry is constantly in flux, and the 4th Edition helps students understand real-world applications of nuclear technology―in the United States and across the globe.

This intro to Nuclear Engineering text provides a solid first step for beginning students. Newer edition is available but I cut my teeth on this one.

اهم كتاب في هندسة نووية و الابسط في اسلوب الشرح في وجهة نظري

[CeeJay Lovejoy · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the best books for introducing the concept of nuclear reactor engineering and safety.

[Syavash Kazemi Neira · Rating 4 out of 5]

A classic book for an introduction to Nuclear Engineering. If you are taking an introductory course to Nuclear Energy generation or such, this is an excellent source.

[Ayhan Okçal · Rating 5 out of 5]

The book follows a logical approach to the nucleus and nuclear interactions, and the key concepts are explained fully. It's very easy to follow through the examples.

[Peter Selato · Rating 5 out of 5]

The textbook was an excellent introduction to Nuclear Engineering for me. The book covers topics such as atomic and nuclear physics, nuclear reactors and nuclear power, neutron diffusion and moderation, nuclear reactor theory, and reactor licensing and safety.

নিউক্লিয়ার ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং এর ছাত্রদের জন্য অবশ্যপাঠ্য একটি বই। অতি জটিল জিনিসের খুব সহজ করে ব্যাখ্যা দেয়া আছে।

I had to read this for a course so why not include it on goodreads

GT Barnes & Noble, 2009-01-1x. Man, nuclear engineering textbooks are pretty broadly crappy. This seems the brightest light among a dim bunch, although I'm hardly authoritative in this field (yet). Good coverage of radiobiological effects and disaster-handling (with some fantastic deadpan comments strewn about these sections). Weaker coverage of power production and reactor physics.

wonderful book for nuclear engineers ..

[Amit Kumar]

i want to read this book.

Fantastic introductory textbook covering everything from basic physics and radioactivity concepts to the reactor physics theory, single and two-phase heat transfer, safety and licensing procedures.

Older editions are in non-SI units.
