Description
Book Synopsis: This book differs from other thermodynamics texts in its objective which is to provide engineers with the concepts, tools, and experience needed to solve practical real-world energy problems. The presentation integrates computer tools (e.g., EES) with thermodynamic concepts to allow engineering students and practicing engineers to solve problems they would otherwise not be able to solve. The use of examples, solved and explained in detail, and supported with property diagrams that are drawn to scale, is ubiquitous in this textbook. The examples are not trivial, drill problems, but rather complex and timely real-world problems that are of interest by themselves. As with the presentation, the solutions to these examples are complete and do not skip steps. Similarly, the book includes numerous end-of-chapter problems, both typeset and online. Most of these problems are more detailed than those found in other thermodynamics textbooks. The supplements include complete solutions to all exercises, software downloads, and additional content on selected topics. These are available at the book web site www.cambridge.org/KleinandNellis.
Details
Achieve mastery in thermodynamics with our comprehensive and practical Thermodynamics Book. Unlike other textbooks, our objective is to equip engineers with the knowledge and tools to confidently solve real-world energy problems. We integrate computer tools like EES into the presentation, enabling students and professionals to tackle problems that would otherwise be daunting. Our textbook is filled with diverse and challenging examples, meticulously solved and explained, with property diagrams drawn to scale. These examples are not your average drill problems - they are complex and timely real-world scenarios, ensuring you're fully engaged. Plus, our book offers numerous end-of-chapter problems, offering more detailed and intricate exercises than other thermodynamics textbooks. To make your learning experience even better, we provide supplements like complete exercise solutions, software downloads, and additional content on selected topics. Visit our book website at www.cambridge.org/KleinandNellis for more information and resources.
