What Are the Best Beginner Books on System Engineering and Simulation?

AI Thread Summary
For beginners in system engineering and simulation, "Systems Engineering Principles and Practice" is highly recommended for its comprehensive coverage. Another valuable resource is "System Engineering Management," which provides insights into the management aspects of system engineering. Both books cater to the needs of graduate and undergraduate students. Older editions are also considered acceptable for foundational knowledge. These recommendations serve as a solid starting point for anyone new to the field.

Would you please introduce me some books on basic system simulations, engineering and modeling which to you are good and sufficient for me-a beginner ? Old ones are also fine...
Any advice, suggestions or recomendations are highly appreciated !

Thank you,

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
