By: Borgnakke, C. (Claus) [author.].
Contributor(s): Sonntag, Richard Edwin [author.].
Publisher: Hoboken, N. J. : John Wiley & Sons, 2017Edition: Global edition, SI version. (based on 9th ed.).Description: xvii, 710 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm.Content type: text | text | still image Media type: unmediated | unmediated Carrier type: volume | volumeISBN: 9781119382843; 9781119382843:; 111938284X.Other title: Fundamentals of thermodynamics.Subject(s): ThermodynamicsDDC classification: 536.7 BOR
Contents:
Introduction and preliminaries -- Properties of a pure substance -- Energy equation and first law of thermodynamics -- Energy analysis for a control volume -- The second law of thermodynamics -- Entropy -- Entropy analysis for a control volume -- Exergy -- Power and refrigeration systems - with phase change -- Power and refrigeration systems - gaseous working fluids -- Gas mixtures -- Thermodynamic relations -- Chemical reactions -- Introduction to phase and chemical equilibrium -- Compressible flow -- Appendix A: SI units : single-state properties -- Appendix B: SI units : thermodynamic tables -- Appendix C: Ideal gas specific heat -- Appendix D: Equations of state -- Appendix E: Figures -- Answers to selected problems.
Summary: This textbook continues to offer a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of classical thermodynamics, while retaining an engineering perspective. With concise, applications-oriented discussion of topics and self-test problems, it encourages students to monitor their own learning.
