Balmer Academic Press, 2011 - Science - 801 pages 0 Reviews Designed for use in a standard two-semester engineering thermodynamics course sequence. (homework, quiz, self-assessment, PRS) 5) To be able to explain at a level understandable by a high school senior or non-technical person the concepts of path dependence. Solutions to exercises and supplementary lecture material provided online at. Modern Engineering Thermodynamics Robert T. Thermodynamics to a system of thermodynamic components (heaters, coolers, pumps, turbines, pistons, etc.) to estimate required balances of heat, work and energy flow. Includes problem sets to help the reader understand and apply the principles introduced throughout the text.
Introduces students to computational methods using updated Mathematica codes. Highlights a wide range of applications relevant to students across physical sciences and engineering courses. Covers new material on self-organization in non-equilibrium systems and the thermodynamics of small systems. Presents new material on solar and wind energy flows and energy flows of interest to engineering.
Includes a completely new chapter on Principles of Statistical Thermodynamics. Fully revised and expanded, this new edition includes the following updates and features: This comprehensive text, suitable for introductory as well as advanced courses on thermodynamics, has been widely used by chemists, physicists, engineers and geologists. Modern Thermodynamics: From Heat Engines to Dissipative Structures, Second Edition presents a comprehensive introduction to 20th century thermodynamics that can be applied to both equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems, unifying what was traditionally divided into ‘thermodynamics’ and ‘kinetics’ into one theory of irreversible processes.
The second half of the text is suitable for an Applied Thermodynamics course in mechanical engineering programs. The first half of the text contains material suitable for a basic Thermodynamics course taken by engineers from all majors.
