[romulus2009]

Hi all,

I'd like to know what would be your recommendations for textbooks in the following fields:

-Reciprocating Compressors
-Centrifugal Compressors
-General Compressor Books

-Pumps
-Mechanical Seals

-General Machine Design / Machinery books

Currently I'm considering the following:

-A Practical Guide to Compressor Technology, Heinz P. Bloch
-A Working Guide to Process Equipment, Norman and Elizabeth Lieberman
-Pump Handbook, McGraw-Hill
-Compressor Handbook, McGraw-Hill
-Engineers' Guide to Rotating Equipment, Clifford Mathews

Thanx,

Romulus
