Publisher's Synopsis
Thermodynamics and Thermal Engineering, a core text in SI units, meets the complete requirements of the students of Mechanical Engineering in all universities. Ultimately, it aims at aiding the students genuinely understand the basic principles of thermodynamics and apply those concepts to practical problems confidently. It provides a clear and detailed exposition of basic principles of thermodynamics. Concepts like enthalpy, entropy, reversibility and availability are presented in depth and in a simple manner. Important applications of thermodynamics like various engineering cycles and processes are explained in detail. Introduction to latest topics are given at the end.Each topic is further supplemented with solved problems including problems from GATE, IES exams, objective questions along with answers, review questions and exercise problems along with answers for an in depth understanding of the subject.
