Fundamentals of engineering thermodynamics
In the twenty-first century, engineering thermodynamics plays a central role in developing improved ways to provide and use energy, while mitigating the serious human health and environmental consequences accompanying
energy—including air and water pollution and global climate change. Applications in bioengineering, biomedical
systems, and nanotechnology also continue to emerge. This book provides the tools needed by specialists working in all such fields. For non-specialists, this book provides background for making decisions about technology related to thermodynamics—on the job and as informed citizens.
Engineers in the twenty-first century need a solid set of analytical and problem-solving skills as the foundation for tackling important societal issues relating to engineering thermodynamics. The seventh edition
develops these skills and significantly expands our coverage of their applications to provide
• current context for the study of thermodynamic principles.
• relevant background to make the subject meaningful for meeting the challenges of the decades ahead.
• significant material related to existing technologies in light of new challenges.
