Description

This is a comprehensive, best selling introduction to the basics of engineering thermodynamics. Requiring only college level physics and calculus, this popular book includes a realistic art program to give more realism to engineering devices and systems. A tested and proven problem solving methodology encourages readers to think systematically and develop an orderly approach to problem solving. It provides readers with a state of the art introduction to second law analysis. Design/open ended problems provide readers with brief design experiences that offer them opportunities to apply constraints and consider alternatives.

Table of Contents

Chapter 1. Getting Started: Introductory Concepts and Definitions. Chapter 2. Energy and the First Law of Thermodynamics. Chapter 3. Evaluating Properties. Chapter 4. Control Volume Analysis Using Energy. Chapter 5. The Second Law of Thermodynamics. Chapter 6. Using Entropy. Chapter 7. Exergy Analysis. Chapter 8. Vapor Power Systems. Chapter 9. Gas Power Systems. Chapter 10. Refrigeration and Heat Pump Systems. Chapter 11. Thermodynamic Relations. Chapter 12. Ideal Gas Mixtures and Psychrometrics Applications. Chapter 13. Reacting Mixtures and Combustion. Chapter 14. Chemical and Phase Equilibrium. Appendix: Tables, Figures, and Charts. Answers to Selected Problems. Index.
