T&F India Thermodynamics For Engineers 2Nd Edition by Wong Kaufui Vincent
Aspiring Engineers Need A Text That Prepares Them To Use Thermodynamics In Professional Practice. Thermodynamics Instructors Need A Concise Textbook Written For A One-Semester Undergraduate Course-A Text That Foregoes Clutter And Unnecessary Details But Furnishes The Essential Facts And Methods.Thermodynamics For Engineers Second Edition Continues To Fill Both Those Needs. Paying Special Attention To The Learning Process The Author Has Developed A Unique Practical Guide To Classical Thermodynamics. His Approach Is Remarkably Cohesive. For Example He Develops The Same Example Through His Presentation Of The First Law And Both Forms Of The Second Law-Entropy And Exergy. He Also Unifies His Treatments Of The Conservation Of Energy The Creation Of Entropy And The Destruction Of Availability By Using A Balance Equation For Each Thus Emphasizing The Commonality Between The Laws And Allowing Easier Comprehension And Use.This Second Edition Includes A New Chapter On Thermodynamic Property Relations And Gives Updated Expanded Problem Sets In Every Chapter. Accessible Practical And Cohesive The Text Builds A Solid Foundation For Advanced Engineering Studies And Practice. It Exposes Students To The Big Picture Of Thermodynamics And Its Streamlined Presentation Allows Glimpses Into Important Concepts And Methods Rarely Offered By Texts At This Level.WhatS New In This Edition:Updated And Expanded Problem Setsnew Chapter On Thermodynamic Property Relationsupdated Chapter On Heat Transferelectronic Figures Available Upon Qualifying Course Adoptionend-Of-Chapter Poems To Summarize Engineering Principlesshow More
