By raja (malaysia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Boiler Operations Questions and Answers, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
This is the best book i've ever read on boiler. This book has been a great reference for me to pass my Steam Engineer examination. I passed the exam by only reading this book and without attending any course. Easy to understand and Chatt answers most common asked question in boiler exams and common doubt among boiler engineers. This book actually answared 90% of the questions that i have doubt in.thank you Chatt !

This review is from: Boiler Operations Questions and Answers, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
It is rare to find an informative text book that has the capability of retaining a boiler operators interest, as this does. The question and answer format presents a challenge to the operating personnel that would be difficult to emualate in a conventional text book. Chattopadhyay has presented this reference book in a format that challenges the reader to broaden their knowledge.One of the best I have read Allan Evans Boiler Commissioning Specialist.
